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.
