Dear Venerable Monks and Nuns,

Dear Students and Friends,

At the start of the Lunar New Year, the Awake Center - Universal Door Meditation Center respectfully wishes all Venerable Monks and Nuns, Students and Friends a New Year full of vitality because the Awake potential is awakened in each person.

Throughout this past year, Universal Door Meditation Center would like to express our thanks and acknowledgement of your merits for realizing clearly the value of Awake, wholeheartedly practicing Awake, supporting and making donations to connect with Awake. Because of this, the Awake Center - Universal Door Meditation Center has been continuously developing to welcome more people from all over the world to come for Awake practice with the goal to Wake Up to end the system of suffering.
