Asalha Puja Day
Asalha Puja Day, also referred to as Dharma Day, is one of the most important holy days for Buddhists. This day of celebration and new beginnings typically falls in July, on the full moon of the eighth month of the lunar calendar. Asalha Puja Day commemorates the establishment of Buddhism. It represents the day that Buddha gave his first sermon as well as other foundational aspects; therefore, this celebration is beloved among Buddhist people.
World peace through inner peace
The goal of Seattle meditation center is not to convert people to Buddhism. It is rather, to foster peace. Meditation benefits all people. We welcome people from all religious faiths to join us in practicing meditation. Through inner peace, there can be world peace.
GUIDED MEDITATIONS
Dhammakaya meditation begins by relaxing the body. Let go all worries. Put the mind in the center of the body about two finger widths above the navel. Imagine a bright object, such as a crystal ball, the sun, the full moon, at the center of the body. Let the mind reside at this location. When the thoughts do arise, let all them go. Recite the mantra"Sam-ma- A-ra-hang" to focus the mind of necessary. When the mind resides, people will experience real peace and joy, wisdom will develop, and the quality of life will improve.
