Inspiring Confidence in the Enlightened Mind:
A Vesak Daylong Meditation Retreat
Date: Sunday, April 22, 2018
Time: 9:30am to 4:30pm
Location: 260 W Dana St, Mountain View, CA 94041
All are welcome to join us for this daylong meditation retreat on developing saddhā, or confidence (also sometimes translated as "faith") in the Buddha, as well as in our own ability to awaken. As Vesak is "Buddha Day", celebrating the Buddha's birth, enlightenment and death, we'll also hold a traditional "bathing the baby Buddha" ceremony. Please bring hats and sunglasses for walking meditation and the outdoor ceremony. There will be a potluck vegetarian meal offering at 11:00am as part of the day. Hope to see you all there!
Out of consideration for our neighbors, we encourage everyone (who is able) to park at Edith Landels Elementary School (115 W Dana St) when attending group meetings. If you wish to park at the vihara, please use the two spaces (next to each other) in front of the garage before parking on the street.
