Join us for the Opening Ceremony as monks from our Geshes' house in India begin the creation of a peace & prosperity mandala!

The Peace & Prosperity Mandala is a representation of the pure land of Green Tara Buddha.  The Opening Ceremony officially begins the process of creating the sand mandala, which will take place over the course of three days, as the monks painstakingly sprinkle sand to create the intricate patterns of the mandala.  There will be hands-on mandala activites for both adults and children.  Bring friends and family of all ages ~ everyone is welcome!
