40 - Buddhist Holidays

24 min • 12 december 2022

There are many Buddhist holidays, but what are they and what do they mean to you?

Buddhist holidays serve a few purposes, which include getting Buddhists together (Dharma Friends), engaging with monastics, visiting the temple, practicing the religion (chanting, recitation, sutra writing, etc.), engaging in additional practices, and reinvigorating your faith in the Buddhist path.
