Monthly activities

In order to share a friendly moment and make the Association known to the public, each month an activity is proposed by a member of the Sangha. The line of conduct that we follow during our monthly outings allows us to maintain a closeness between Buddhism and daily life. The joy of sharing a moment together is beneficial for all beings who accompany us in the visible and the invisible.

Le beau temps estival est souvent propice à la promenade et à la découverte de la nature. C'est pour cela que l'activité TNG Suisse proposée pour le mois d'août est une marche jusqu'au Christ-Roi de Lens. Nous y découvrirons une statue monumentale inaugurée le 22 septembre 1935. Érigée au sommet de la colline du Châtelard (1271.9 m), elle domine la plaine du Rhône. Nous monterons jusqu'à la statue du Christ-Roi à pied et dînerons sur place. Pensez à prendre votre pique-nique! Pour les plus gourmands d'entre vous, je propose de prolonger l'activité chez Claire glaces. Après l'effort, le réconfort!
