Day for Tibet Sunday, December 4, 1:00pm - 8:00pm Gualala Arts Center |
At 4 p.m. they will conduct a Blessing of the Gualala River sponsored by the Friends of the Gualala River. Please bring walking shoes and a jacket to use on the River Trail. The blessing will be followed by a community potluck with plenty of time to socialize, walk the grounds, and relax with the monks. At 6 p.m. the monks will conduct an "empowerment" ceremony known as Chenrenzig, the Buddha of Compassion. The blessing of Chenrenzig is highly sought after as it helps one to become more peaceful and compassionate despite current events. There will be a separate donation ($20 and up) requested for this ceremony, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. The "Day for Tibet" will conclude around 8 p.m. Please plan on attending and invite your friends for a special event with some very special people. For further information contact Jef Schultz at (707) 884-3607.
