Take a Free Tour of the World Peace Buddhist Temple at Kadampa Meditation Center New York. The Temple is one of six Kadampa Temples around the world. The Temple’s unique design is based on the celestial palace of Heruka, the Buddha of Compassion. The design also represents all the stages of the spiritual path.
Just seeing it reminds us that we have the potential to improve our human nature and qualities through developing the capacity of our mind.
