Punyanumodana: Sil Observance at Hudson Valley Buddhist Vihara

"Sabba Dānam Dhamma Dānam Jināti"
(The Gift of Dhamma excels all other gifts.)

In celebration of the noble Navam Full Moon Poya Day, we are pleased to share that the Sil and Meditation program held at the Hudson Valley Buddhist Vihara was concluded with great success and spiritual joy.
We wish to share these merits with everyone who contributed to this noble Sasana service:

To our Most Venerable Preceptor:
Our deepest gratitude and most respectful merits to Venerable Usgoda Dhammagaru Thero. We thank you for guiding us with profound Dhamma instructions, a soulful sermon, and a peaceful meditation session. May Ven. Thero be blessed with excellent health, longevity, and the strength to continue sharing the nectar of Dhamma with the world.

To the Sponsoring Family & Volunteers:
A special merit offering to Mrs. Anula and her family, who prepared and offered the midday alms (Dana) with such great devotion. We also extend our gratitude to the Dayaka Sabha members and all volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes. May this merit bring prosperity to your lives and success to all your righteous endeavors.

To the Devotees Observing Sil:
To all the devotees who dedicated their day to the practice of Prathipaththi Puja (honor through practice): may your commitment to the Dhamma lead to inner peace, mental clarity, and the cultivation of your Perfections (Paramis).

Our Aspiration
May the sublime merits generated today be shared with all our departed loved ones. May the protection of the deities be with you all. By the grace of the Triple Gem, may these merits be a guiding light for everyone to eventually attain the Supreme Bliss of Nibbana.
