Tharpa Publications, in partnership with Kadampa Buddhist Centres around the UK held a successful campaign of bookshop events in 2010 to promote our bestselling Living Meditation series. The talks, given by the author’s local representatives, brought to life the practical simplicity of Buddha’s advice for a happy life.

Over the coming weeks and months we will be organising more bookshop talks to promote Geshe Kelsang Gyatso's latest title Modern Buddhism. Bookshops interested in holding one of these popular events, based on this or any of our titles, are welcome to contact us.

All upcoming events will be listed below so please stay in touch to find an event in your local area or contact us and we will let you know when one becomes available.
