| Why was the
mission born? |
| |
|
In order for a life
to arise in this world as taught in Buddhism, there must be five
components present. Likewise, our Mission, a religious society was born
because the five factors were present at its beginning. |

| Our Motto:
"Mission Above Self" |
 |
The services rendered by the Mission's
resident monks and management committees, under the guidance of our
spiritual leaders, have traditionally been motivated by compassion and
good will. The Mission focuses a great deal on education - study ,
understand and practice the Buddha's teachings. Going through the last
15 years, there were numerous volunteers who came to serve the Mission
in the best of their capacities. Working for noble causes, most came to
the understanding and realisation that "to service others is to
service one self". To optimise strength and efforts in all of
the Mission's endeavours, volunteers serve in unity with the motto: "Mission
Above Self" |
