International Day of Peace – September 21

KPC in Arizona will join in the International Day of Peace on September 21, a UN-sponsored endeavor, to focus our energy and attention on world peace.

At 8am at the Amitabha Stupa there will be a meditation led by Kaml Hill, one of KPC’s senior students and an ordained monk. This is open to the public. By some accounts, there are 20 major conflicts going on throughout the world today. The Friday meditation will focus on these conflicts and an end to all war with a 20-minute silent meditation.

The KPC Sangha will gather in the evening at 6pm for a Shower of Blessings tsog. According to the Tibetan lunar calendar, Friday is a particularly potent day to practice as it is Guru Rinpoche day. The merit of the morning meditation, the evening Shower of Blessings as well as the ongoing 24-prayer vigil will be dedicated to the swift end of all war and killing in the world.

Please join us with your thoughts, prayers and meditation on Friday, September 21st.
