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.
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.
