Our mission is to understand the purpose of this rare human birth, to know ourselves, to undertand impermanance (anicca), for health of the body and mind, to spread unconditional love (metta), compassion (karuna) and equanimity (upekha) towards ourselves and others. The freedom that the Buddha realized and the meditation techniques that he taught such as Vipassana are also taught here. On Sundays we do spiritual chanting and on full moon days we conduct special poojas. Then we recite from the Holy Dhammapadam and this is followed by a Dhamma Talk.
We sincerely invite you to participate in this auspicious event to receive its blessings, then afternoon buddha worship sangha will tie the Auspiciousness thread for all participants.
You may also take this opportunity to get his blessings... |

| Last Words |
The Buddha tirelessly traveled and taught until his death at age 80. His last words to his followers:
"Behold, O monks, this is my last advice to you. All component things in the world are changeable. They are not lasting. Work hard to gain your own salvation." |
