A Virtual Vesak for 2021
Dear Friends:
This May, all over the world, Buddhists and friends will celebrate Vesak - honoring the Birth, Enlightenment, and Paranirvana of the Buddha, the Awakened One. Here in Pittsburgh, our many sanghas have been celebrating together since 2009, as seen in this beautiful, 6-minute video from 2012.
Please join one another on May 2nd for our 2021 Virtual Vesak. We, at the Buddhist Society, look forward to when we can all be physically together again for Vesak, but we know that the pandemic is still with us and we must protect one another. Yet on May 2nd, we can begin Healing Through Coming Together online via ZOOM. We will celebrate, listen to chants, meditations and a Dharma talk, and also enjoy the opportunity to share with each other live in smaller breakout rooms. We can refresh and nurture our Buddha heart, our Bodhicitta.
Mark you Calendars! And at 2:50 PM on May 2nd, login a few minutes early to be ready to hear our Opening Welcome. Here is the link for that day: (http://tiny.cc/vesak2021). Hoping to see you all then.
