SUMMARY:Anniversary of Venerable Acariya Thoon Khippapañño’s passing
DESCRIPTION:In the early morning of November 11\, 2008\, Venerable Acariya Thoon Khippapañño passed away into final enlightenment (nibbana). On this 16th anniversary of our noble master’s passing\, we reflect on his teachings\, his legacy\, and our work to carry out his mission. Acariya Thoon dedicated his life to spreading the Buddha’s teachings about the importance of keeping wisdom (pañña) and right view (samma-ditthi) at the forefront of Dhamma practice. \nWe continue to preserve his teachings\, practice in his footsteps\, and are dedicated to producing media that embodies these core principles in Thai\, English\, and many other languages in order to reach the greater public. We recently published “The Autobiography of Venerable Acariya Thoon Khippapañño” in both English and Thai complete with color illustrations in paperback\, epub\, and pdf formats (click here) and our “watsanfran” YouTube channel regularly publishes Acariya Thoon’s Dhamma sermons as well as thought provoking excerpts of those sermons in our “Taste of Dhamma” series in Thai (click here) and with English subtitles (click here). \nOn this day that commemorates Acariya Thoon’s last day on Earth\, help us keep his legacy alive by sharing his life story and teachings with others. We bow in deep reverence to Venerable Acariya Thoon Khippapañño. Sadhu\, sadhu\, sadhu.

SUMMARY:Kathina 2021
DESCRIPTION:We invite all faithful Buddhists to join us in sponsoring and making merit during San Fran\nDhammaram Temple’s 2021 Kathina. The fundraiser will be held at 9.00 a.m. on Sunday\, October 31 at 2645 Lincoln Way\, San Francisco\, CA 94122. \nDue to COVID-19 and a scheduling conflict with Outside Lands Music Festival\, we will not be able to hold our annual Kathina at the Hall of Flowers (Golden Gate Park) according to our usual custom. Therefore\, we will be holding the Kathina ceremony at the temple. Since the size of gathering at the temple is limited due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic\, we have determined that: \n1. This year’s Kathina will be a closed event\, and we will provide the live stream of the ceremony on YouTube Live (www.youtube.com/watsanfran) on October 31\, 2021 starting at 9:00 a.m. \n2. Faithful Buddhists are invited to gather in groups of no more than fifteen people to act as in-person sponsors\, donating Sangha robes\, Kathina contributions\, and other articles at the temple. We plan to welcome such groups between the hours of 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. from October 22 through October 30. We ask that those who are interested call ahead and reserve a time slot. You can reach us at 415-753-0857 or LINE ID @watsanfran. \nThe donations from this year’s Kathina will go towards paying the remaining mortgage ($2\,016\,385) for the Akaliko Women’s Residence\, supporting temple expenses (utilities\, Dhamma book printing\, Buddhist animation project\, etc.)\, and to support San Fran Dhammaram Temple’s Buddhist and Thai Culture School. \nWe invite you to be a part of this auspicious fundraiser by pledging to be a main sponsor\, donating through a group sponsorship\, or stopping by to make charitable contributions of food and requisites. These wholesome actions help Buddhism and its teachings continue to thrive here in San Francisco\, and will result in great merit for you. By the power of the Buddha\, Dhamma\, and Sangha\, may you be prosperous\, blessed with good health and happiness\, and may all your aspirations attain fruition. \n****************************************** \nFor those who are interested in donating to this year’s Kathina\, you can do so by: \n\nstopping by to make a donation in person\,\nmailing a check made out to “San Fran Dhammaram Temple” 2645 Lincoln Way\, San Francisco\, CA 94122\, or\ndonating via the PayPal Giving Fund through our website: watsanfran.org and clicking the DONATE button.

SUMMARY:Forest Robe Offering
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the Forest Robe Offering Ceremony for the restoration of the Akaliko Women’s Center. \n10:40 a.m. – Alms round\n11:00 a.m. – Meal offering / Dhamma talk\n12:15 p.m. – Paritta chanting by monks\n12.45 p.m. – Forest Robe Offering Ceremony / Monks give blessing \nIn 2015\, San Fran Dhammaram Temple purchased the building at 2701 Lincoln Way\, and it is becoming a women’s practice center called Akaliko\, where women and nuns can come and practice. However\, the building is over 100 years\, and there has been frequent and extensive flooding inside\, causing the wooden walls\, ceiling and floor to rot. For this reason\, the monks and directors of the temple are searching for ways to raise funds to pay for the expense of the restoration. \nWe invite you to be a sponsor of the August 2017 Forest Robe Offering Ceremony to help pay the expense of Akaliko’s restoration\, currently estimated at $215\,000. Any amount at all is appreciated; there is no minimum donation. Your donation helps sustain the Buddhist religion in the USA as well as enables others to benefit from the robust resources San Fran Dhammaram Temple provides. \nTo sponsor the Forest Offering Ceremony\, you may: 1) stop by the temple in person; 2) donate via paypal; or 3) mail a check made out to “San Fran Dhammaram Temple” at 2645 Lincoln Way\, San Francisco\, CA 94122. \nDownload our official invite.
