Saka Dawa Day: Community Celebration of the Birth, Enlightenment and Parinirvana of the Buddha of Compassion and Offering of the Heart Sutra for World Peace
Sunday, May 31, 4:00 – 5:00pm, In-Person or via Zoom
This important Tibetan Buddhist festival day, Saka Dawa (the 15th day of the fourth month on the full moon), is one of the four great holy days of the Tibetan calendar. It marks, in a single day, three sacred deeds of the historical Buddha, Buddha Shakyamuni: his Commemoration of the Conception, Enlightenment and Parinirvana (passing away).
Practitioners understand that any actions during Saka Dawa month (May 17 to June 21, and especially on May 31 this year) – deeds both auspicious and harmful – are multiplied in their strength. Therefore, this is a very powerful time to practice and increase one’s commitment to the path of wisdom and compassion.
