All Dana items were brought by our members.This pinkama was held to invoke blessings on those members who are no more and to bless the present members of the RCPTA. The chief Priest of the Asokaramaya temple on his Anusasana said he appreciates this effort by the RCPTA which he says he has not heard of any other Past Teachers group doing on such a large scale.
At the end of the Almas giving blessings were invoked on those departed members and the present members. The members finally left the temple after having the lunch at the temple.
