Please join us for our annual celebration of His Holiness the Dalai Lama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, as well as helping to further his vision of the Zone of Ahimsa, or Zone of Peace.

We are excited to announce that this year you can join in to help all sentient beings and make a commitment to peace in honor of His Holiness with the “Wish-Fulfilling Gem Tree.”

Ahimsa will be held at the home of a sangha member who has graciously opened their home for the event.
