Spring Equinox Celebration Sunday with Lama Geshe Thubten Soepa
March 22, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Spring has arrived…Celebrate the Vernal Equinox with community in the lush Sanctuary of Lotus Bend!
It has been a long winter, join us to rejoice in the return of the light and new cycle of growth! This will be a day to relax, connect, share food, enjoy live music, and be guided in a very special ritual in honor of the sacred creatures of our planet, with Lama Geshe Thubten Soepa.
Animal Liberation Ritual 2:00 pm:
This is an incredible opportunity to practice the virtue of saving lives. Participation is optional, but if you feel called to participate, you may visit a pet store and purchase animals that would otherwise be killed and set them free. (Worms, fish, crickets that would otherwise be used as bait are great candidates.) This is a profound practice recommended by Geshe Soepa to bring about good causes in your life and in the world.
