Parinirvana Day

A morning of reflection as we commemorate the physical death and final Nirvana of the Buddha. An opportunity to remember those close to us who have died, and celebrate the preciousness of our own lives. There will be a chance to place photos on the shrine of friends or relatives who have died.
