What's On
Gyuto Monks Sculpting For Peace
January 25th - February 12th 2012
This next stage of the World Peace Stupa will see the monks sculpting the symbolic signs, patterns and traditional emblems on to the exterior levels of the throne. The size of the project and the sophisticated moulding technique being utilized in the construction process means the monks will work with the large moulds in situ on the ground before they are placed in position on the stupa base.
In between this more physical work, the monks will offer their usual program of morning chanting, children’s activities, lunchtime meditation sessions and talks.

Harmonic Chanting Performance
A fundraiser for the World Peace Stupa
Due to the floods in our area we have had to cancel this performance. We will be rescheduling, So stay tuned!
Trained over many years, each monk has developed the extraordinary capacity to chant in three octaves at the same time. The deep, stirring sounds produced have been called the ‘sound of heaven’ are reputed to have a transformative effect on the physical as well as the emotional body.
