Auckland Insight community celebration day
Event description
Community celebration for Vesak
In the Buddhist calendar, the full moon in May is used to commemorate the Buddha's birth, Awakening and passing away, and is a time of celebration in Buddhist communities all around the world.
Auckland Insight warmly invites you to attend our own day of celebration, an opportunity to come together for a day of meditation practice, short dharma talks, small group discussion and informal socialising over a shared meal.
A light lunch plus morning and afternoon tea will be provided.
Anyone who is interested is welcome to attend, whether you have previously been to our Auckland Insight group meetings or not.
Time and date:
9:30-4:30 p.m. Sunday 30 May 2021
Cost: $10 + dana* includes a light lunch
*The registration fee covers only a contribution to room hire and catering. Any surplus funds will be donated to Auckland Insight for their ongoing costs.
In keeping with Buddhist tradition, the teachings are offered on a dana basis which means the teacher is not paid to offer this workshop. Instead, they rely on the generosity of the participants to help them continue to share their teachings with others, and there will be an opportunity at the end of the workshop to offer donations to support their ongoing teaching.
