Visit the Albuquerque KTC to:
We invite you to visit the Albuquerque KTC, the first Tibetan Buddhist center established
in Albuquerque. A traditional sadhana practice is held
every Sunday at 9:30 AM
(visitors welcome).
Group meditation practices are held at 10:30 AM each Sunday. Teachings and empowerments from authentic Lamas in the Kagyu lineage are offered semi-regulary. In addition, the center maintains a library of books on Buddhism, as well as audio and video recordings of teachings. These resources are available to KTC members. Please contact us for information about becoming a member. At KTC, we emphasize our direct connection with His Holiness, the Karmapa and the Karma Kagyu Lineage. We practice meditation, tantric sadhanas, and Lojong (Mind Training), with the aim of calming the mind and emotions, and developing spiritual insight and wisdom. For instruction and guidance, we rely upon the Lamas and teachers of KTD Monastery, who regularly visit our center.
