This year’s Kagyu Monlam will take place from the 15th to 21st December 2023 and it will be the 21st Kagyu Monlam since 1996, when the late Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche gathered the resources for all Karma Kagyu practitioners to come together for the first time at the sacred venue of Bodhgaya. the sacred place where our historical Buddha attained enlightenment more than 2,500 years ago. 
The main prayer recited at the Kagyu Monlam is known as the ‘King of Aspiration Prayers’ or the ‘Samantabhadra Wishing Prayer’. As Karmapa has said: When we come together at the sacred place where Gautama Buddha reached enlightenment and offer aspirations for peace and prosperity for all beings, the merit, wisdom and benefit that is accumulated is tremendous.
