Kamalashila

Kamalashila
(14 April 1949 – 5 October 2024)

Kamalashila’s ashes will be distributed according to his wishes during a memorial service at North London Buddhist Centre on 17th November. (see his obituary here)

There is a morning of practice and an afternoon with rejoicings and a puja, with video recordings of Kamalashila leading meditations and puja. Due to space restrictions, this is by invitation only.

But the whole day will be streamed online by The Buddhist Centre Online via the following link:

Meeting ID: 840 4998 1501
Passcode: 895546

See timings below.

Not everyone who wants to come can be physically present, but Yashobodhi hopes many people will join online. The pandemic brought Kamalashila his perfect teaching platform: Zoom. So this farewell will be very much in his spirit.
