New Live Videos of our Dhammagiri Robe Offering Ceremony 2024:
The Kaṭhina season is traditionally the time when both lay community and monastic sangha cooperate in a grand ceremony meant to mark the end of the yearly retreat period. It is long considered as one of the most auspicious times in the year to make merit ('puñña' = good karma), when the laity present robes and other requisites to the Sangha in a joyful spirit, full of appreciation for the monks resolute striving in their meditation during the rains retreat. For this years Robe Offering Ceremony we have invited monks from Buddha Bodhivana Monastery, Warburton near Melbourne, Bodhisaddha Monastery, Wilton near Sydney and Bodhipala monastery near Adelaide.
This time dedicated supporters from our Vietnamese community will be leading the Pali chanting for requesting Triple Refuge & Precepts and offering Forest Cloth to the Sangha.
Our stupa is now finally finished and in the process of being shipped from Thailand. Preparing a suitable site for our little stupa on the hilltop of Dhammagiri is now our first priority project.
We will dedicate the financial offerings received at our Robe Offering Ceremony on 17 Nov. to this project and associated works.
