Only once in a thousand myriad kalpas
Came into appearance one Buddha in the world

       Homage to Buddha Shakyamuni
       Dear friends and fellow practitioners, 

       In commemoration of the Buddha who has taught and guided us in the path to the enlightenment and liberation of the cyclic existence, An Lac Temple invites you to attend the celebration of Buddha’s Birthday on:

10:00am Sunday, May 15, 2011
(aka April 13, year of the Rabbit)

       With our admiration and great gratitude to the great teacher, as Buddha’s followers, we should ask ourselves what we can possibly do in the present time while there are disasters, calamities occurring in all over the world.

       We hope to see you at our temple to join us in sharing dharma, recitation of the Buddha’s teachings, learning to cultivate wholesomeness and together pray for the prosperity of the country and for world peace.

       May you and your family be in peace and practice in perseverance.

                      Sincerely yours,

       Bhiksuni  Nguyên Thiện, Abbess
