Join us for a special spirit experience to celebrate the many meanings and moods of the holiday season in song and word, silence and prayer.
Bodhi Day celebrates the day in which Siddhartha Gautama sat underneath the Bodhi tree and attained enlightenment. This one defining moment would become the central foundation upon which Buddhism has been built upon for the last 2,500 years. It is a day on which followers reaffirm themselves to enlightenment, compassion, and love toward themselves and other living creatures.
The holidays can be a wondrous time for many of us. The holidays also can be a time where many of us are confronted with loss, sadness, and conflicted friend and family relationships. We are made to believe that we should be jolly and full of cheer during the holidays. Let us reconsider the narrative that the holidays are only joyous and make peace with the holiday blues.
An Exploration of Hope, Love, Joy, and Peace.
Together, we’ll explore how we can cultivate remembrance and gratitude in these troubled and troubling times, and throughout the year.
