July 28, 2019 – Bodhi Meditation Toronto hosted its 2nd Annual Energy Bagua Festival to celebrate Bodhi Meditation Day and introduce Energy Bagua to over a thousand attendees on July 28, 2019.

This annual event brings together members of the Toronto community to celebrate the wondrous Energy Bagua, a mind-body exercise based on ancient Daoist principles, proven to enhance health and longevity . Energy Bagua, Energy for Life, was adapted for modern times by Grandmaster JinBodhi after his own ill health was totally transformed through this simple yet effective cultivation method. Since it was first introduced in 1991 by Grandmaster JinBodhi, millions of people across the world have benefited from this practice.

Focused on raising awareness to the importance of regular physical activity to maintain health and quality of life, this free event received strong support from government officials at all levels. We share below congratulatory letters from all levels of Government.

We acknowledge and sincerely thank the following organizations for lending their wholehearted support to this event: Ryan Russell Memorial Pipe Band, Scout 388 Brigade, Toronto Harmony Lions Club, Canadian East Hanfu, Happy Line Dance Yvonne Au, and many others.
