Vesak Celebration 2024
May 11 @ 8:30 am - 4:00 pm
We will honor Vesak, which is a Buddhist holiday in our Mahayana tradition. Our Ceremony will commemorate the Life Story of the Buddha – including his birth, enlightenment, teaching and death over 2,500 years ago. As part of the ceremony, we will bring the story to life with a “bathing of the baby buddha” with flowers and water.
The Mount Adams Buddhist Temple will be open to Sangha members and their guests for a Special Event honoring the Life of the Buddha. The Retreat will be conducted by resident abbot Venerable Kozen. Please bring your own meals and beverages.
AT NOON: A special pavilion of Tibetan Flags will be raised up on the future site of the new Temple at Mt. Adams Buddhist Temple. Please join us!
