Compassion Day

Compassion Day 2014 — The 79th birthday of His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Sunday, July 6
Please join us on this special occasion of the third annual Compassion Day to honor His Holiness the Dalai Lama and create positive energy for our Center and the community. The scheduled events are as follows:
10:00am – 11:00am
Sunday Morning Meditation

Emily Hsu will lead our regular weekly Sunday meditation.
His Holiness the Dalai Lama
11:00am – 11:15am
Food Drive Kickoff

John Boley will kick off our year long food drive in association with the Second Harvest Food Bank (please bring non-perishable food items to donate).  The food drive is planned to be one aspect of a future outreach program focused on alleviating suffering in our community and building a strong sense of compassion for others.
11:15am – 12:15pm
Animal Liberation Practice

Emily Hsu will lead an animal liberation practice.  This
is an important practice on this occasion as it is focused not only on compassion by transforming and releasing fellow beings that would ordinarily die soon, but it is also a special practice for prolonging people’s lives such as His Holiness the Dalai Lama on this occasion of his birthday.

Everybody is welcome to attend!

This is a free event.  Donations are appreciated.
