    logo_unityofsedonaSedona AZ (April 27, 2017) – There are different paths to achieve the same goal. We all want the same thing and that is to live joyfully together on this planet. Come and listen to a Buddhist perspective on how the unity of religions and tolerance of our differences fosters world peace.

    At the conclusion of the lecture there will be a Tea Ceremony offering. The tea offering is a special blessing for the environment and showers all individuals in the presence of the monks with nectar. This ceremony helps you overcome obstacles in your life. The goal of the ritual is to invoke protection and to remove obstacles. During the ritual the monks will conduct a session of hypnotic chants and invocations for about 20 minutes.

    • Sunday, May 28th, 2017

    • Cost: $20 Suggested Love Offering (no one will be turned away)

    20170427_monks2In the ceremony, participants don’t drink the tea but rather the monks will chant and bring a wish to be granted by the Enlightened Dharma Guardians. During the prayer they will invoke all the divine beings and after they will make tea offerings by pouring the divine nectar of each and every enlightened being into a vessel. As the nectar is being poured each person present is invited to participate and make a wish. The monks will chant the deep resonate Tibetan chanting that they are famous for while showering all participants with the blessings of radiant nectar.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you.
