Sunday at the Vihara

On the first Sunday of the month, there is an opportunity to take the Three Refuges and the Five Precepts (this is not required, and you are welcome to come and simply observe).

In April and May, we will be exploring the Dhamma through the lens of the Ten Paramī – Ten Perfections, or “Ways to Cross Life’s Floods”. The Ten Paramī are: Generosity – Dāna; Morality – Sīla; Renunciation – Nekkhamma; Wisdom – Pañña; Energy – Viriya; Patience – Khanti; Truthfulness – Sacca; Resolve – Adhitthāna; Kindness – Mettā; and Equanimity – Upekkhā.

This week, Ayya Ānandabodhī will explore Generosity and Morality – Dāna and Sīla.

We invite you to join us for a meal and/or an afternoon Dhamma program at the Vihara:
