Menlha Kadampa Buddhist Center is a non-profit organization based in Lambertville, New Jersey. Amitayus Kadampa Buddhist Center was recently established in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Both are Members of the New Kadampa Tradition - International Kadampa Buddhist Union. This tradition is an international Mahayana Buddhist organization founded by the Buddhist Master, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. The Center offers the study and meditation programs of Kadampa Buddhism, under the guidance of our Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Tenzin.
Menlha and Amitayus Kadampa Buddhist Centers, holding classes throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania, were founded on the knowledge that it is possible for everyone to cultivate positive states of mind that will lead to calmness and inner peace. We strive to provide a conducive environment for people in New Jersey and Pennsylvania to deepen their understanding and experience of meditation practice and Buddhist studies. Meditation is the heart of Buddhist practice. Through meditation, we can gain deep insight into how to be happy and deal with life’s challenges successfully.
Through consistent meditation practice, we can complete all the stages of the path to enlightenment and attain indestructible inner peace. These Centers offers many ways to integrate our spiritual understanding into our daily life. Everyone is welcome.
