Sri Lanka Buddhist Vihara Perth Western Australia

Dear Friends,

As per the Lord Buddha’s teaching in Maha Sathi Patthana Sutta, ‘Ekayano Ayan Bhikkave Maggo..’, the only way to get rid of suffering is by practising the four folds of mindfulness.

SLSBS has introduced a monthly meditation full day program series at Perth Sri Lanka Buddhist Vihara at Kenwick via Zoom.

This is in addition to the ongoing Monthly Sil program on Full Moon Poya Day.

We invite Venerable Theroes who are well-known meditation masters in Sri Lanka and in other countries to join online to guide us and conduct the sessions throughout the day.

The Third in the series of these monthly meditation programs has been scheduled for:

Saturday, 4th December 2021 from 8.00 am to 5.30 pm

No previous meditation experience is required to attend the program.

Experienced Venerable Theroes will guide you during the program. If you already practise meditation or not and need advice from an experienced Thero, kindly send your meditation questions early to the email address below to share with the respective Thero. During the last session, we have received very useful questions which had been answered.

Email: slsbspresident@gmail.com

Kindly share this information with your friends.

All are Welcome!

Dear Friends,

Atavisi Buddha Pooja will be held on 1^st January 2022 at 6:00pm to invoke blessings and success for you all in the coming New Year 2022.

You are invited to partake in this meritorious deed to welcome the New Year 2022.

We remember the twenty-eight Buddhas who preceded Gautama Buddha and recite stanzas recalling their virtues. Two offerings are made to each Buddha. One is a Atapirikara and the other a tray of offerings (Gilanpasa) consisting of flowers, a candle, gilanpasa and chatumadura.

Dayakathwaya for each of the two offerings as follows.
● Donation of $100.00 for ATAPIRIKARA
● Donation of $50.00 for Gilanpasa offerings tray

Offering an ATAPIRIKARA is considered as one of the Ata Maha Kusal (Eight most efficacious merits). Besides, Offering ATAPIRIKARA comes second in this list of Eight Most Efficacious or Noble Merits.

Much merit is gained when we make these offerings at a Atavisi Buddha Pooja.

The ATAPIRIKARA and GILANPASA offerings will be provided by us to you to offer on that day (You also can assign someone else to offer on behalf of you),

Please contact Champa Kulasekara (0405 718 248) or Jayanthi Gamage (0424 453 674) or email slsbspresident@gmail.com or enter your name in the list on the notice board.

On 1st January 2022, Atavisi Buddha Pooja will start at 6.00pm (6.00pm to 6.45pm). So, please be at the temple by 5:30pm.

Pirith chanting will start at 6.45pm and will continue.

All the proceedings will go to the upkeep of the Temple.

You are all kindly invited to participate at this annual event welcoming prosperous and successful New Year 2022.

Theruwan Saranayi!
