Since October 2018 Principal Dharma Acharya Natalia has given open teachings in Moscow and 8 other Russian cities, where people were not familiar with tradition of Dzogchen Buddha Path yet. About 150 people were introduced to teachings of Buddha. Extensive distance-learning course on Buddhism with broadcasts of group lectures and personal classes for each of students is now under way on a regular basis. Organizing of Buddhists Centers in cities visited by Natalya is now being worked on.

Now as a result of the open lectures 63 new students have started to attend the distance-learning course.
The system of distance-learning courses has been successfully developed.
The beginner course was run five times. Now 75 people are studying at the course. More trainings in practices and views are provided now and new centers are being opened in Bologoye, Kazan, Naberezhniye Chelny.

- since January 2020, there are regular Sunday classes are held in Izhevsk
- since July 2020, there are regular Sunday classes are held in Ulyanovsk

The center in Ulyanovsk tries to become self-sufficient (yoga, tsigun, kung fu)

At the present time Dharma Acharya Trainer Natalia lives in Ulyanovsk city due to active work with new Dharma Centers, and the intention to give open Teachings and create Dharma Centers in the cities of Togliatti, Samara, Syzran, Saratov, Saransk, Penza, Ufa, Cheboksary, Nizhny Novgorod during favorable periods free from epidemics.

Current work is focused on development of methodological recommendations and other supporting guidance for organizing similar projects in other countries and also on development of programs for distant and open teachings with technical hints for organizing broadcasts of online distant courses.

Russia really needs Dharma.
Unemployment and poverty make people unhappy.
Most of cities where Acharya Natalia teaches are disadvantaged and low-income places, so there is no source of sponsorship needed there.
Nevertheless people in Russia are interested in Buddhism and the need for open teachings in Russian cities is great.

Dharma spreading provides gaining of enormous merits, so if it is possible – please support activities of Dharma Acharya Trainer in Russia!
