PWP CONTRIBUTOR JOANNAH SODERBORG: ANN ARBOR BUDDHA'S BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AT ANN ARBOR BUDDHIST TEMPLE SATURDAY

If you want to go to a great party this weekend check out Buddha's birthday celebration at the Ann Arbor Buddhist temple May 14th at 6:00pm.  It is a wonderful way to get to know our Buddhist community and celebrate.

The Vegetarian Buffet Extraordinaire, on Saturday May 14th at 6pm, will be prepared by a very experienced crew in the kitchen at the top of their game. The entertainment includes a talented Jazz ensemble who have played the past two years, as well as some lively Buddhist songs performed by the new temple choir.
Students $10.00
Adults $20.00
Families $40.00


Religious Services on Sunday May 15th bring a different tone to the celebration. At the 9:30am morning service meditation is followed by special rituals for the Buddha's Birthday, including the precious ritual of bathing the baby Buddha. In the evening at 7:30pm we dedicate beautiful lanterns which have been hung in the Sangha Hall. At 3pm is a poignant, nutshell lesson on beginning a meditation practice.So come and celebrate Buddha's birthday- he is the easiest person to shop for because he only wants peace and enlightenment. 
See you there
