Our vision is to achieve peace in our world by teaching scientific methods that transform individuals, and therefore society, one mind at a time. In this way, inner peace will naturally lead to outer peace. Our talks and meditations are designed to solve the problems of modern living, providing relevant solutions to the struggles we all face on a day to day basis.
We offer tools that people can immediately apply to solve their daily problems and become more relaxed, happy and at peace. We envision a diverse, joyful spiritual community where everyone is welcome to learn constructive new thoughts, attitudes, and meditations that lead to authentic, lasting peace of mind and mental freedom.

I'm so grateful for the kadampa center being open during the pandemic, so I could enjoy being with other Buddhists to practice meditation and learning the teachings of the Buddha.

Because space is limited you must sign up prior to going so they have space.

The facility is an oasis of peace in Phoenix. The landscape is beautifully cultivated and the meaningful mural on the wall gives inspiration to all who come to learn its meaning. The center itself is beautifully laid out with a gorgeous, peaceful meditation room that hosts many wonderful events. Uppity will meet wonderful people there, especially the managers and Resident Teacher who show a wealth of wisdom and compassion.
