The 9th anniversary of Bodhisaddha and the 19th anniversary of Bodhikusuma is a milestone that celebrates what has been achieved through the support of many people. With this we have been able to reach the completion of the exterior framing of Bodhisaddha Hall.

To celebrate this milestone, a Buddha statue will be enshrined into the arch on top of the main entrance of Bodhisaddha Hall. This has been stylised from the ancient Borobudur architecture.

The anniversary also encourages us to look to the future and support the future growth and development of Bodhisaddha so that it may continue to be of benefit to many people.

The ceremony will be led by Tan Chaokhun Maha Samai and the resident & visiting monks.
