Dharmachakra Day is an auspicious day in the Buddhist calendar, marking the Buddha's first sermon after his enlightenment at the Deer Park in Sarnath, India.  This teaching, and the others which followed, was likened to setting into motion, the wheel of the Dharma - the well known image of the Buddhist dharma wheel being a reminder of this great and significant occasion.   All are invited to join resident teacher, Venerable Lama Tsewang, the sangha and local community in prayer and celebration on this special day.  For details phone 03) 63349680.
