Thank you to everyone who joined in the opening of the Temple garden on Thursday, May 2nd!
There was a "Garden Opening Ceremony" to begin the garden growing season. The ceremony included walking in procession around the garden chanting the "Disaster Preventing Dharani", ceremonially planting the first seeds, and chanting our "Garden Chant". We also read a Thich Nhat Hanh quote about being aware of what kinds of thoughts we "water" within ourselves - whether wholesome or unwholesome.
A cold-hardy group of gardeners joined to plant peas and spinach seeds, plant brassica seedlings, till and shape the garden beds other getting the garden ready tasks. Resulting a beautiful garden of potential!
