THIS IS A LIVESTREAMED EVENT

April 15th marks the anniversary of Buddha Shakyamuni demonstrating the attainment of enlightenment in 589 B.C.E. As part of Buddhas Enlightenment Day celebrations, a special evening talk will be given, exploring the symbolism behind the life story of Buddha Shakyamuni. We will look at Buddhas life story and how it conveys practical and profound teachings on how to enter, make progress and complete the spiritual path to enlightenment.
