Sutra Resounding

Thanks to all the youth and other participants who joined us in reading aloud the sutra “The Good Eon”/བསྐལ་པ་བཟང་པོ།. Reading the words of the Buddha aloud is said to benefit oneself and all those who can hear them.

What are the benefits of a Resounding? (From 84000 website)
- It allows one the time and space to really engage and familiarize oneself with a new text, and similarly, holds the potential to pique one’s interest in reading further.
- It may also provide more understanding and insight into the wisdom of the Buddha’s teachings.
- Strengthening the imprint of Dharma in one’s mind while avoiding less wholesome forms of distraction.
- Planting the seeds of Dharma in all those who hear your voice resounding these wisdom words.
- Accumulation of merit attained by participating in a group Dharma activity and in reading the words of the Buddha with the right motivation.
