‘Dhamma Day’ commemorates the preaching of the Buddha’s first discourse after His Enlightenment – the ‘Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta’ – the ‘Discourse on turning the Wheel of Dhamma’. We joyfully invite you to join the online ‘Dhamma Day’ Service on Facebook Live to observe this auspicious occasion. There will be a Dhamma forum with the theme “Tranquility in the face of Uncertainty – Lessons from Sigālovāda Sutta” to help us deepen our understanding of the Buddha’s teachings and reflect on how we can live our lives in accordance with Dhamma. All are welcome!
