The Dharma, which are the teachings of the Buddha, are one facet of the Triple Gem (The Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha) – a core aspect of Buddhism. Through this event, we celebrate the Buddha’s teachings and their impact on our lives.
This day also commemorates the awakening of an Indian prince and what changed him into the Buddha (Shakyamuni Buddha).
Please join us for a celebration of Buddhist wisdom taught by our original teacher, Shakyamuni Buddha, as well as other teachers who have been inspired by him. Enjoy special presentations, lectures, and theatrical performances focusing on new understandings, real-world applications, and deeper explorations of the teachings of compassion, service, and spiritual practice which have blossomed in the world.
Students of our Buddhism classes are encouraged to apply for time to present what they have learned and gained from Buddhist teachings.
