FREE: Meditation on Compassion for Sakadawa with Lama SamtenIn Person or Online
with LAMA SAMTEN for Sakadawa (Buddha's Awakening date)
It will be ONLINE and you can also join in Person at our Centre in Toronto if you like!
The fifteenth day, or full moon, of the fourth Tibetan lunar month corresponds to a very special date in the Buddhist tradition. Sakadawa means "moon (or month) of the Saka constellation" in the Tibetan calendar, in which the 15th day of the month is considered to be the day Siddhartha Gautama was born. A few years later, on the same day he achieved full enlightenment, and a few more years later he passed into parinirvana (left this body).
Lama Samten will guide a meditation and give a teaching on compassion and how to develop it. This quality is necessary to bring peace to our world. We will do a meditation together and recite the Om Mani Peme Hung (compassion) mantra.
See you soon!
