Preparing for the very special Wheel-Turning day

Friday 22 November
~ 5:40am to 3:00pm ~

Join us  for any part of this day's activities,
starting with the taking of precepts for the day at 5:40am.
Lhabab Duchen celebrates Guru Shakyamuni Buddha’s return to Earth from the God Realm of the Thirty-Three after teaching Dharma for several months to the gods, including his mother, Mayadevi, who had died a week after Buddha’s birth and been reborn there. As a merit multiplying day, the karmic results of actions done on this day are multiplied 100 million times. This amazing result is taught in the vinaya text Treasure of Quotations and Logic.
