Avalokiteshvara is an enlightened being who is a manifestation of all Buddhas’ compassion. By relying sincerely on Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion, and reciting his mantra with strong faith, temporarily we will improve our realizations of all the stages of the path, especially our realization of great compassion, and ultimately we will attain supreme Buddhahood in Avalokiteshvara’s Pure Land.
What to Expect: Teaching + Guided Meditation + Avalokiteshvara Chanted Prayers
Cost: $5/Class
“Our job is to pray for world peace – anytime,
anywhere. With compassion, we make dedications and pray to develop
and maintain inner and outer peace and harmony. We know there are
so many dangers and problems arising right now, war and terrible
things. We try to repair, to pacify, to cause all dangers and
obstacles to cease through our prayers. With compassion, we pray
every day for world peace, that the people of this world will
experience peaceful and happy minds and meaningful lives. Through
our pure intention, the power of our prayers and particularly
through receiving blessings from enlightened beings, results will
come, definitely. Our job is to pray.”
