Dear Dhamma friends

For the sixth (6) successive year, 24hr Metta – the non-stop round-the-clock chanting of 

Karaniya Metta Sutta and other mantras for world peace, harmony and stability – will be held 

on 31 Dec. 2016 and 01 Jan. 2017.

Aloka Foundation and the Buddhist Missionary Society Malaysia (BMSM) are again co-organizing 

this annual Metta event which will be held at Samadhi Vihara - 1B, Jalan Pegaga U12/14, Section U12, 

Kawasan Perindustrian Bukit Raja, 40170 Shah Alam, Selangor.

The 24-hr non-stop chanting will commence with the first hour chanting (10.00 am to 11.00 am) by members

of the Maha Sangha and end at 10 am on Sunday, 01 January 2017. 

An Illumination Ceremony is being planned for 8 pm on Dec 31, symbolic of lighting up the world with metta with the circumambulation 
of the Vihara led by Ven. Mahinda with participants in tow bearing candle lights.  Immediately after the circumambulation, all present 
will sit in meditation to radiate Metta for world peace, harmony and stability
We hope that you would gather you, your family members, relatives and friends will join us to radiate metta for world peace, harmony and stability
