The Calgary Diamond Way Buddhist Center is one of over 600 Diamond Way centers worldwide started by Lama Ole Nydahl under the spiritual guidance of H.H. 16th Karmapa Rangjung Rigpe Dorje. We follow the Vajrayana (or Diamond Way) practices of Buddhism.

We meet every Wednesday at 7:00pm to meditate and discuss Buddhist teachings and principles in an effort to bring Buddhism into our daily lives.

The main practice in this and all of our centers is Guru Yoga Meditation on the 16 Karmapa which incorporates visualization and mantra recitation. It usually takes about 20 - 30 min and is preceded by a short talk on Diamond Way related topics such as Karma, Meditation Practices, Dealing With Disturbing Emotions and so on.

In addition to our weekly meditations we also host travelling teachers from around the world to hold meditation and teaching courses and retreats, focusing on bringing clarity and understanding to Buddha's teachings.
