Dharma Day: A Personal Invitation
The Buddha described the Dharma as ehipassiko, sometimes translated as ‘of the nature of a personal invitation’.
He invited his followers to reflect on the Dharma in the light of their personal experience and to reflect on their personal experience in the light of the Dharma.
Join us on Sunday 13 July to celebrate and reflect upon the Dharma through meditation, personal talks, ritual, and group activities.
Please bring vegetarian or vegan food to share for lunch.

We run on a Dana Economy. Dana means generosity: we do not charge for our meditation and Buddhism classes and we rely on the generosity of people like you. A donation of just £15 - £20 at a festival day helps us to make these Sangha events open to everyone.
