Teacher Training Programme (TTP), offers practitioners of Kadampa Buddhism the opportunity to study deeply, gain practical experience of both Sutra and Tantra and, if they wish, train to become qualified Dharma Teachers. It’s not just for those who wish to teach formally though, because we all teach through our example and the advice we give to friends and family.  TTP gives us great confidence in our own practice and in our ability to explain Kadam Dharma to others.

The programme consists of a dynamic combination of teachings, meditations, discussion and teaching skills classes providing a multi-faceted approach to the development of authentic spiritual experience.

Students on the programme are required to observe several commitments, namely to keep good discipline, attend all the teaching and discussion classes as well as sit examinations. Students are also encouraged to participate in regular meditation retreats that will be scheduled throughout the year.

All Resident Teachers of Kadampa Buddhist Centres follow this in-depth programme of study and practice.

The Book We Are Studying

New in February 2019: Essence of Vajrayana

Essence of Vajrayana is a truly unique book.

It is the first complete explanation in any Western language of the uncommon Tantric practice of the Heruka body mandala generation stage.

Buddha Heruka is a manifestation of enlightened compassion. By training in the generation and completion stages of Heruka Tantra, and in particular by training in the uncommon body mandala practice taught in this book, we can swiftly attain a sublime realization of profound inner peace and great bliss that we naturally impart to others.

This book is a comprehensive manual for the Heruka practitioner, containing a clear explanation of both the generation and completion stages, along with all the sadhanas and other ritual instructions necessary to engage in the practice.

Teacher

Taught by Buddhist monk, Gen Tharpa who is the Resident Teacher of Madhyamaka KMC
