Dharma Vijaya Buddhist Vihara Presents

Vas 2017
(Rains Retreat 2017)
91 Days 91 Jataka Tales

July 8^th through October 6^th
Nightly at 7:00 – Meditation Hall

Join us for something new this year.  During this year’s Vas Season the monks of Dharma Vijaya will be chanting a different Jataka Tale every night for 91 nights.  Come and experience some rarely-heard Jatakas, and then read them on your own to deepen your understanding of the Tripitaka.

Each night will be sponsored by a different individual and each night one of their family members or a Dharma Vijaya Buddhist Vihara Sunday School student will read the English translation of the Jataka Tale.  The suggested minimum sponsorship fee will be $100, and the proceeds will be shared between the group of monks who do the chanting – and the temple.  This is a way to show your appreciation to the fine monks who serve you all year long, and encourage them to expand their repertoire of the Tripitaka.

Each night’s chanting will be videotaped and posted on YouTube.  We will also be connected by Skype so you can tune in live no matter where you are.

Please reserve a date and send us your donation (checks may be made out to Dharma Vijaya Buddhist Vihara).  You will gain merit by supporting the monks and our community in this way.
May you have the Blessings of the Triple Gem
