Because of the compassion of our monks at Buddha Meditation Centre, we all had a rare opportunity as Dhamma friends, from all different backgrounds, both adults and children, to get together and have a 3-day retreat in the monastery. For those days, we all collected huge merits by listening to the Dhamma, reading Dhamma books and engaging in discussions, as well as practicing many kinds of meditation taught by the Buddha such as loving-kindness, impermanence, meditation on foulness, meditation on the aggregates and much more. We also chanted many suttas along with the Maha Satipatthana Sutta and devoting all our time to imitate those great Arahants.
We share all these merits with our Teacher, Ven. Kiribathgoda Gnanananda Bhante, along with the monks of Buddha Meditation Centre of Greater Toronto as well with all the lay devotees who helped and participated in this great retreat. May these merits help to realize the Four Noble Truths in this Gautama Buddha's Dispensation!
