On Lunar Observance Day* at the vihara, we will sit until midnight, have Dhamma sharing and there will be an opportunity to take the Refuges and Precepts.

*Lunar Observance Day occurs on full, new, and half moon days, and in monasteries around the world practitioners sit through the night following the taking of the Refuges & Precepts and listening to Dhamma. The monastic communities renew and recite their precepts on full and new moon days.
