Fourth Annual Prayers for Peace
We are so excited to announce our Fourth Annual Prayers for Peace, which will be a virtual Zoom mantra-thon on Saturday, September 18th from 12:00-8:00 pm. We created this event as part of the UN International Day of Peace which is observed around the world on 21 September.
This year, the Schedule of Mantras will be as follows (please note this is tentative):
12:00 - 12:45 Padmasambhava
12:45 - 1:30 Buddha Shakyamuni
1:30 - 2:15 The Heart Sutra
2:15 - 2:30 BREAK
2:30 - 3:15 Amitabha
3:15 - 4:00 Medicine Buddha
4:00 - 4:45 Tara
4:45 - 5:00 BREAK
5:00 - 5:45 Manjushri
5:45 - 6:30 Chenrezig
6:30 - 7:15 Vajrasattva
7:15 - 8:00 Palden Lhamo
Prayers for Peace is divided into separate segments each devoted to a specific Buddhist mantra and dedicated to a state of mind that supports happiness, peace and inclusion for all living beings. We are currently looking for volunteers to lead one of the 45-minute mantra segments. Each mantra segment will be facilitated by a CTBC Zoom host who will support the volunteers throughout the segment.
Certainly, this year’s event will be a very special experience! If you would like to be part of the Mantra-thon and lead a mantra segment or have any questions, please contact Sr. Sharifa Vernice Meytung info@tibetanbuddhist.org. We will do our best to accommodate requests. Preference will be given to volunteers who have not led a session previously.
Please respond by Friday, September 10th. Once the schedule is finalized, Sr. Sharifa will contact each volunteer with more details.
