Feature Contents

    The volunteers at Buddha Weekly wish all beings a happy and prosperous New Year! We wish that all beings will have love, compassion, joy and equanimity in their lives.

     

    BUDDHA WEEKLY NEW YEAR 2018
    Happy 2018. Most of 2018 is the “year of the Dog” — since it’s Lunar calendar, starting February 16 rather than January 1. Until February, it’s still the Fire Rooster year.

     

    May all beings have happiness and its causes

    May all beings be freed from suffering and its compassions

    May all beings constantly dwell in joy transcending sorrow

    May all beings dwell in equal love for those both near and far.
