Last year, more than 1,000 people came together at Wutai Shan Buddhist Garden for our annual Three Steps, One Bow pilgrimage — walking side by side in a spirit of peace, gratitude, and compassion. Every three steps, we pause and make one full bow: a moving meditation that cultivates humility, mindfulness, perseverance, and loving-kindness.
This year’s pilgrimage is set for Sunday, September 6, 2026, 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Everyone is welcome — whether you complete the entire day or simply join for a portion of it, each step becomes an offering for peace in the world and peace within our own hearts.
