Photos - Pilgrimage to India

Ayya Sudinna went to Sri Lanka on November 16th 2018 and returned to the  Carolina Vihara on February 26th 2019. On February 2nd 2019, she went on a pilgrimage to India to visit the Holy Places sacred to Buddhists. A group of 23, including Ayya Sudinna's son and family, joined this trip. This is a pilgrimage that will cause "samvega" (a sense of urgency) to every Buddhist. Here are some photos of a few places we visited.
