Uposatha Observance

On moon observance days, we hold an evening Pūjā (chanting) and meditation starting at 7.30 p.m in the temple. This is followed by an opportunity to take the eight-precepts, a Dhamma talk by one of the monastics and meditation vigil until midnight. You are welcome to join for all or part of the evening.
