Pet Blessings at Loving Kindness Meditation Center, we gathered at Loving Kindness Meditation Center with Venerable Bhante Nagitha to offer blessings of loving-kindness and compassion to our beloved animal companions.

In the Kukkura Jātaka, the Buddha told of a wise and compassionate dog who cared deeply for his fellow dogs. When the dogs were wrongly blamed for causing damage, their leader spoke with courage and truth. Through his wisdom and compassion, the injustice was revealed.

The story reminds us that mettā has no boundaries. Kindness and compassion extend to every living being. Our animal companions teach us patience, loyalty, unconditional love, and the beauty of living in the present moment.

May all our beloved pets be healthy, safe, peaceful, and free from suffering. May the loving bond we share with them become a beautiful practice of mettā—boundless loving-kindness.

Sabbe sattā bhavantu sukhitattā.
May all beings be happy and peaceful.

Next Pet Blessings: September 26, 2026
All pets are welcome—dogs, cats, birds, and every beloved animal companion. Please join us for another special gathering of loving-kindness and blessings.

During this sacred three-month Vassa period, today at Maitri Viharaya, Mr. Wasantha, Mrs. Nushangi, and their little daughter kindly came to the temple and offered the midday Dāna with great faith and generosity.

We were also very happy to have Dr. John and Mrs. April, our American friends, join this meritorious occasion and share in this beautiful act of generosity.

May the merits of this blessed Dāna offering be shared with everyone who prepared the meal, offered the Dāna, participated in the ceremony, and supported this meritorious event in any way.

By the power of these merits, may you all be blessed with good health, long life, happiness, peace, prosperity, and success in all your good wishes.

May the blessings of the **Triple Gem — the Buddha, the Dhamma, and the Sangha — always protect and guide you and your families.

May all beings be well.
May all beings be free from suffering.
May all beings live in happiness and peace.

May the Triple Gem bless you all!

A Warm Welcome & Heartfelt Gratitude

Today, we were truly honored to welcome our dear friends from Columbus — Mr. Ramesh Rollands, Mrs. Jayani Liyanage, beloved mother Mrs. Jeanette Somalatha, beloved daughter Yenara Rollands, and beloved son Aiden Rollands — who visited the newly established Maitri Viharaya.

In addition to visiting this sacred place and sharing their blessings, they also brought and generously donated essential dry food items in support of the Vihara and its ongoing activities. We are deeply grateful for their kindness, generosity, and thoughtful support.

Your visit and generous contribution have brought us great joy and encouragement as we begin this new chapter.

May the blessings of the Triple Gem be with you and your entire family, bringing you good health, happiness, peace, and prosperity always.

With our heartfelt gratitude from Maitri Viharaya.
