Kumar Kashyap Mahasthabir Bhante passed away.
It is indeed very sorrowful to hear the news that Tripitakacharya, the Most Venerable Kumar Kashyap Mahaasthabir Bhante, the 6th Sangha Anunayaka of Nepal passed away at the age of 85, on Sunday, 26th of February. He was one of the five monks forced to go on exile by Juddha Shamsher, the Prime Minister of Rana Regime, due to propagation of Buddhism in Nepal. He is one of the earliest monks who suffered and worked tirelessly for the propagation of Theravada Buddhism in Nepal. His demise is an irreparable lost for the Sangha and Theravada Buddhism in Nepal. We wish Bhante, may he attain the supreme bliss of Nibbana.
Memorial Services
We also like to announce that on this coming Friday, March 2nd at 6.30 p.m. we are going to have Memorial Services with Buddha puja, paritta chanting and sharing merits to departed bhante and all the Sangha members who dedicated their life for the sake of Buddhism in Nepal. The service will take place at International Shakyamuni Buddha Vihara & Vipassana Center, 140 Cottage St. Lynn, MA 01905. After the chanting prayer there will be tea/coffee and other short eat services. Your participation at this memorial service will be greatly appreciated.

As old flowers fall from a jasmine plant let lust and hatred fall away. v.377
Ajahn Chah was in London, staying at the Hampstead Vihara. The monks were troubled by the noise that was coming from the pub across the road. Ajahn Chah told them that the cause of suffering was their sending attention out to trouble the sound. Sound itself is just so. Suffering only arises when we ‘go out’ and add something extra. Seeing our part in creating problems, a shift in the way we view struggles takes place. Instead of blaming, we simply ‘see’ what we are doing, in the moment. Let’s not get into a fight with hatred; exercising careful restraint and wiAjahn Chahse reflection, we let ‘fall away’.
Initially we see this only after we have reacted and created suffering. With practice we catch it sooner. One day, we will catch ourselves just as we are about to create the problem. Ajahn Munindo Reflection.
