Following the "Discovering the Buddha Within" study and practice curriculum designed by Guru Vajradhara himself, Guru Vajradhara His Holiness the 12th Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa taught the first year of the transmission, titled "Inner Peace: The Gateway to the Buddha's First Turning of the Dharma Wheel," over the course of one week, from April 11 to 17, 2026, at the Leela Ambience Convention Hotel in Delhi, to devoted disciples gathered from around the world. This transmission was jointly requested and organized by Palpung Dharma Chakra and the Palpung Institute of Buddhist Studies.

This year's curriculum included topics such as shamatha meditation with the support of breathing and mental recitation; the four applications of mindfulness according to both their specific and general characteristics; the four noble truths; and refuge. All these were taught in a clear and accessible manner, with the various aspects of view, meditation, and action introduced and illustrated through stories and examples, and understanding further deepened through guided meditations. In addition, His Eminence Chungpo Gyalton Rinpoche taught the final session of the program, while Khenpo Ugyen provided supplementary review classes and led guided meditations.
