The Diamond Way is the crown jewel of the Buddha’s teachings. Working from the absolute level it employs methods of total identification with enlightenment for the quickest possible results. Since 1972, our Karma Kagyu centers around the world have been developing a modern approach to the Buddha’s Diamond Way with great success. Modern western education, stressing self-reliance and independent thought, has proven to be an excellent basis for realizing one’s mind. Through such capable groups the Buddha’s most effective teachings are being passed on to the most idealistic and independent people around the world.

In Toronto the Diamond Way Buddhist Center was established in 2002. Since 1972 our Diamond Way Buddhist centers worldwide have been established by by Lama Ole Nydahl and his wife Hannah Nydal and are fully guided and directed by 17th Karmapa Thaye Dorje. Read more »
