Warmest greetings.
After five Service Sundays with Bro. HS Tan who has explained the Eight Core Values and 'SERVICE' as a Buddhist way of life, this Sunday, we will explore another core value in more detail.
'SADDHA' or faith plays an important role in making the Buddhist life meaningful. It is about having the right understanding and deep confidence in the Buddha-Dhamma. It is the force that drives devotees to Buddhist centre or temple, make offerings, listening to the Dhamma and practising it.
To know more about 'SADDHA' and ways to cultivate Buddhist faith, Sis. Tan Yee Yong will join us for this coming Service Sunday and share with us on "Cultivation of Faith in Daily Life".
The Service Sunday will start at 9am with meditation, puja and chanting. The Dhamma sharing will follow after. We welcome you to join the congregation to rekindle or increase our faith in the Buddha-Dhamma.
Thank you.
