It's time to celebrate Buddha's Birthday! We're having an auction and birthday celebration on Saturday, June 16, 2012 (a little past Buddha's Birhday--but close!) Starts at 12:30 pm. The auction will raise funds to pay for the new sound system that we installed in January when the old one completely conked out. We hope to raise $15,000. If you'd like to be part of this very special event, please RSVP at janet@templebuddhistcenter.org. If you have any Buddhist items or other things of value that you would like to donate for the auction, please email me. We would be very grateful!

CHANTING MEDITATION IS FUN!

Every Wednesday, 6:00pm - 7:00pm, Myrtle Fillmore Chapel

Want to let your inner Chant Master out? Tired of falling asleep when you sit quietly in meditation? Here's a fun way to enliven your practice that requires no rhythm, no singing ability, no nuttin', just a desire to use your voice as a tool for enlightenment.

CONFUSED ABOUT WHERE TO START? It's easy to get overwhelmed by all the options. Feel free to contact Janet at janet@templebuddhistcenter.org and get some individualized assistance with what might be right for you.
