Namo Buddhaya! We saved close to 175 animals from slaughter. We bought their freedom. We gave them life. Venerable Monks and devotees from Mahamevnawa Toronto got together on Saturday, October 1st to save animals who were subject to slaughter. We drove to a local farm and rescued rabbits and several types of birds. We gave them an opportunity to live. Not only were rabbits given homes but they became part of many caring families who adopted them. May you all rejoice in this "Abhayadana" merit, have good health, long lives, and the opportunity to realize the Four Noble Truths in this Gautama Buddha's dispensation

AuthorWe learned many great things about helping others from our great teacher, Supreme Buddha. Before becoming a Buddha, our Bodhisatta (Buddha-to-be) was able to collect immense merits by helping others and providing a service to the society. |
