Avatamsaka Monastery

A beautiful place to meditate!

Me and my husband attended the event today. People are very nice there. and food was very delicious. Both of us felt very happy and light after the event.

The Avatamsaka Sagely Monastery is a truly phenomenal place to visit. Their Wednesday night meditation offers a bit of repose in a busy world, and the monastery's sangha is very friendly and welcoming! I highly advise that any follower of the Buddha should visit here for a small pilgrimage!

It is so special to have a monastery downtown which offers free meditation on Wednesdays.

I went to this monastery to see if I can learn more about Buddhism and what it looks like inside. The main hall was huge with 10000 Buddha's statues. Most floors were quite empty though. Other than the great Hall, there was not much to see.
