​The KBV Almsgiving Committee cordially invites you to…

Almsgiving 2017

Sunday, November 5th

Karuna Buddhist Vihara
497 Sierra Vista Ave #4, Mountain View, CA 94043

10:30 am    Arrival
11:00 am    Meal offering (vegetarian) & Rice Pindapata
12:30 pm    Robe cloth offering & Dhamma Talk
  2:00 pm    Closing


At the end of the three-month Rains Retreat, the lay community gathers to offer the monastic sangha robe cloth and other requisites that will be useful for the coming year. It is an auspicious and joyful occasion acknowledging the relationship of friendship and mutual support between the lay community and the monastics.

This year our focus for donations will be a new Expansion Fund. The intention is to find a new home for the growing vihara that can accommodate 3 or 4 nuns as residents and 25 meditators in the shrine room, still located in or around Mountain View.
May your offerings be of benefit to all beings.
Dana can be offered at the ceremony or in advance.

You can donate to the expansion fund here.   
Or you can visit our list of useful items.

Your donations to KBV are tax deductible.
If you would like to volunteer, contact the committee at lynne@bodymind-innerwork.com


We also encourage carpooling, which can be arranged at: www.groupcarpool.com/t/02ydhx

All your support is appreciated.
                                                                           Yours in Dhamma,
                                                                                       The 2017 Almsgiving Committee
