The 14th Anniversary of the Enlightenment Stupa was celebrated on May 24th at Pal Karma Dorje Dzingpa Ling in Northern California. On this special day dharma brothers/sisters and friends gathered at the stupa site to commemorate the building of the Stupa and to celebrate the Buddha’s birthday.  A delicious vegetarian lunch was later served to everyone participating in the event.   On the following day a Fire Puja was held at the Stupa site before returning home.   Everyone enjoyed the activities especially circumambulating the Stupa which generates many merits to all sentient beings.
