February 16th 2022 - Śhakyamuni Buddha’s Parinirvāṇa
Channel: Tendai Buddhist Institute
Date: 2022-04-03

We observe the day in which the historic Buddha died. This is a celebration, rather than a memorial. Reverend Monshin also discusses some important distinctions between the Pali Mahāparinibbāna Sutta and the Mahayana Nirvana Sutra, which are two very different accounts of this event. 

It is through your kind generosity that we are able to continue the work of the Tendai Buddhist Institute. If you would like to donate to our Temple, please visit our donation page: http://www.tendai.org/tbi/donate/. 

May we share these merits and virtues with all sentient beings, and progress together on the Buddha Path of Liberation.
 
Svaha!
