Lanterns

 The Guanyin Pavilion overlooks the lake at MABA. It is a special place of peace and compassion at the monastery.


A large lantern illuminates  the pavilion. This lantern is eternally lit as an offering to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the three times and the ten directions. For our Dharma friends and supporters who wish to make a dedicated lantern offering, one of the lanterns listed below can be lit in your name. 


  • Lantern of Illumination – To eliminate darkness and to have bright future. 
  • Lantern of Peace – To quell disasters and illness and to have peace at home. 
  • Lantern of Longevity – To be free from sickness and have long life. 
  • Lantern of Wisdom – To eradicate ignorance and gain the great wisdom. 
  • Lantern of Wish Fulfillment – To get what one wishes. 


We will engrave a tablet in your name (or any name you wish) and place it at the pavilion for a recurring offering of $100 per lantern annually.  The tablet can be for your ancestors or deceased relatives or friends so they may benefit from the merits of a lantern offering.


To light a lantern by check: Please make check payable to MABA and write down the information for the lantern offered, and mail to MABA, 299 Heger Lane,  Augusta, MO 63332.
