Peace Is Possible: Mala Making Workshop
September 16, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
$20Learn the traditional Buddhist technique for making or repairing a mala.
Our ten through teens meditation group is called Peace Is Possible. This month our group project is making qualified malas. (More info about the teen program coming soon.)
A mala is a ritual object that Buddhists use to count prayers or mantras. For Buddhist practitioners their mala is a very precious and meaningful object. Making a mala is a very meditative practice in itself. This three-hour workshop includes a brief talk on the beautiful minds of prayer, mantra recitation, and concentration, followed by instruction and hands on mala-making.
Join us for this special event and leave with your very own handmade mala for an extra $10 materials fee.
Cost of workshop is $20 for those donating the mala they make to our center for sale in the bookstore.
