In addition, the event will celebrate the birthday of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, 1989 Nobel Peace Prize recipient, as well as raise funds for the continuation of temple activities.
The public is invited to participate in Prayers for Compassion and/or may contribute to the temple by sponsoring a set of mantras - a penny a prayer ($1 for 100 mantras, $50 for 5000 mantras, etc.), and these tax-deductible pledges may be brought to the event or given online at www.urgyensamtenling.org. Last year, more than 1.2 million mantras for loving-kindness and compassion were recited.
