An evening with Kelsang Rigma & Kelsang Lochani
In this special evening, Kelsang Rigma, Resident Teacher of Jampa Ling, will be in conversation with her good friend Kelsang Lochani.
Lochani, a 91-year-old Buddhist nun who has been ordained for 25 years, is a deeply respected member of the KMC Canada community. She is known for her natural and spontaneous loving-kindness, her warmth, and her ability to see the good in everyone and everything.
They will share stories and reflections for everyone to listen to, enjoy, and learn from.
Together, they’ll explore simple but profound questions about love, relationships, and what gives real meaning to human life.
The evening will also include two guided meditations. Afterwards, there will be a relaxed social gathering to celebrate Lochani’s birthday.
Everyone is very welcome.
