1st Turning of the Wheel and
International Sangha Day
27 Jul 2017
This Wheel turning Day marks the day the Buddha first taught the Dharma after manifesting enlightenment and is one of the four important holy days of the year.
Significantly the karmic effect of positive (and negative) actions is magnified 100 million times on these holy days so practitioners try to undertake virtuous activities and keep their minds positive.
The program at our Centre is:
• | 6.30am | Precepts given by Geshe Sonam |
• | 12noon | Setup tables and prepare water bowls |
• | 1pm | Filling water bowls |
• | 3pm | Sutra recitation |
• | 7.30pm | Light offerings and Shakyamuni Buddha Puja |
Donation of food and flowers are welcome.
