*Vesak Celebration*

*Sunday, September 25, 2011*

*From 5:30 P.M. to 10:30 P.M.*

*Davie, FL*

 Join us for a delightful evening to celebrate Vesak—the day of Buddha's
birth, enlightenment, and paranirvana—with a Bathing The Baby Buddha
Ceremony and traditional Vietnamese Lion Dance. The celebration will also
include a *Dharma Talk by Venerable Brother Thich Chan Huong Hue*, followed
by a chanting session, joyful singing, and a Vietnamese vegetarian dinner.

The “bathing” refers to a ceremonial bathing of a statue of the baby Buddha
in perfumed water, to remind people to keep a clean mind, free from all
obstacles and to awaken and cultivate their True Nature. The Celebration
will be conducted in Vietnamese with some English translation.

*This event is open to the public and offered on a donation basis in the
Buddhist spirit of generosity and inclusiveness*. Thus, your generosity in
providing a donation or Dana for the Temple and the monastic Sangha is
gratefully accepted and encouraged. Your kind donation helps support the
activities of the Four-fold Sangha (e.g., defray the costs associated with
maintaining the meditation hall, offering activities, beverages and meals)
and is greatly appreciated.

*Directions to Vesak Ceremony*: Tu Vien Huong Hai is located just West of
Flamingo Road at 2321 SW 127 Ave., Davie FL 33325. Take I-595 to Flamingo
Road Exit. Go South to 20th Street. Make a Right on 20th Street. Go to the
