Let's Celebrate the Valentine's of Peace

 
The festive celebrations are just over, yet another is about to begin.  The Valentine's Day of 2009 is of much significant difference.  At the Johannesburg Meditation Centre, we celebrate the Valentine's with style.

Experience the authentic alms-round of 22 Thai Buddhist Monks around the heart-shaped sunflower field, followed by a charity with style: Giving material necessity & Inner Peace through the practice of Meditation.

The entire day is celebrated by giving and charity.  Don't expect a plain charity day like ever.  The Meditation Centre gives with style. They make a difference.  Besides food bags and the like, they share the inner peace with all participants through the joyous moment of meditation.

Join the Peace for Africa movement at the Meditation Centre in the Cradle of Humankind.  Bring back the old days to see humankind give more than take.  Witness the 2,600-year-old living tradition of giving and the culture of peace. 

Africa shares the Universal Love to the world.  From 2009, The Valentine's would never be the same!
