Kabar Dharma collects Buddhism updates from various sources in one application. With the ease of access to Dharma information from Kabar Dharma (KARMA), we hope that more people will be inspired by the virtuous values of Buddhism teaching.

KARMA is developed and managed by the Foundation of the Preservation and Development of Lamrim in Nusantara (Yayasan Pelestarian dan Pengembangan Lamrim Nusantara, widely known as Lamrimnesia), a non-profit organization that undertake the responsibility of preserving and developing Dharma, especially Lamrim, in Indonesia through translating and publishing Dharma books, organizing Dharma events, and circulating Dharma information on social media.
