Everyone is welcome. Stop in and watch as the visiting Tibetan Buddhist Monks spend days creating an ornate WORLD PEACE Sand Mandala, only to destroy it during the Closing Ceremony on Saturday. The destruction of the mandala serves as a reminder of the impermanence of life.
The Monks are touring the US to raise money for the Ngari Institute of Buddhist Dialectics, their orphanage and school for disadvantaged children, in the Himalayan Kingdom of Leh, Ladakh. Ngari Institute, Village Saboo, P.O. Leh-Ladakh-194101, India. A 501(c)(3) Not for Profit EIN:83-1094066
PLEASE NOTE: parking for the White Heron Sangha is very limited during the week. Please consider carpooling and/or walking or biking from the Bob Jones Trailhead parking lot on Ontario Road or from Avila Beach. Thank you.
