The New Buddhist Center Hamburg Diamond Way Buddhism for Northern Europe A great vision on solid ground |
| |
For the past twenty years, Diamond Way Buddhism has grown steadily and rapidly - especially in Northern and Eastern Europe. The same has happened to the Buddhist Center Hamburg since its foundation in 1978 under the protectorate of the 16th Karmapa. Almost all high teachers of the Karma Kagyü Lineage have given courses here. | With the new center project on its way, we have a unique chance to establish a strong base for the further growth of Buddhism in Northern Europe: for the first time, we can bring Buddhism into the middle of modern society. For this project we ask for your support. |
"Dear Students and Friends everywhere, no project appears to me more important until the year 2000 than the creation of the big Karma Kagyü Center in Hamburg. It will reach a new public and offer the wide approach to Buddhism needed today, thus inspiring the centers everywhere. Our competent Hamburgers have the necessary experience and are up to this challenge. Please see if you can help. It will benefit us everywhere." Lama Ole Nydahl, Spring 1996
