Sponsorship of morning or afternoon tea during the Complete Path, 2018 Term 2
We have introduced a system this year whereby individual or groups of students are offered the opportunity to sponsor lunch/dinner/morning teas/afternoon teas during the program in May and September.
This is an old tradition. The relationship of a community sponsoring or supporting the source of its spiritual education is deeply embedded within traditional Buddhism. In Lord Buddha's time, the community offered daily food to the ordained Sangha to show respect to the Buddha Dharma and to accumulate merit for themselves. In ancient times, this giving and receiving cemented a bond between ordained Sangha and the lay community.
This is very much optional, and only if you wish to partake. You can nominate a particular day you wish to sponsor and there will be a roster of days that are available. If you have a particular day you wish to sponsor please email Ann Kelly early to book that date. All meals and teas will be prepared by the catering staff.
