What is the Karma Kagyu Buddhist Network?
The Karma Kagyu Buddhist Network (KKBN) is an international computer network which is operated by volunteer coordinators in order to enable and enhance communication between organizations, centers, groups and individuals. The KKBN provides information about the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, supports communication among interested parties and introduces a world-wide online Sangha. The KKBN exists under the spiritual guidance of the 17th Karmapa, Thaye Dorje and is directed by Lama Ole Nydahl.

How can I participate in the Karma Kagyu Buddhist Network?
The KKBN is organized by voluntary coordinators all over the world. We have members in Germany, Russia, USA, Canada, Poland, Austria, Spain, etc. If you also want to go online and to contribute to the work of the KKBN, please contact the coordinators.

What does participation in the Karma Kagyu Buddhist Network cost?
All KKBN services are offered by volunteering coordinators who carry the costs themselves. It is the tradition of giving, the natural generosity which has kept buddhism alive for more than 2,500 years. Participation in the KKBN is free, without any obligation and can be canceled informally at any time.

However, here is a little request for all members: Please spread the word about the existence of the KKBN and support your local center by voluntary contributions or help the Dharma otherwise.

How can I help?
You can help a lot by distributing information about the KKBN and by helping others who are not computer-literate to participate in the electronic Sangha. Most inhibitions are due to fear of the new technology. When you offer you help to others in the Sangha, enabling them to use the medium as well, you are making an excellent contribution.

If you are part of a center, you could let your friends there know that the KKBN exists and how centers from all over the world are connected with each other. By helping others to understand telecommunication and its value to the Dharma, you can make a very valuable contribution to the project.
