AwakeEnergyScouter Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Good morning, scouters! My cub scout recently finished their Metta Award, and as per the guidance I am planning an uplifted religious celebration for awarding the pin itself. Because our lineage also gives out pins for authorizations or empowerments, it makes sense to follow that custom for the Metta pin also. We do a lhasang, have the teacher purify the pin, and then student and teacher bow, the teachers gives the pin, and then they bow again. That's all fine and good, but then what? I think my cub scout is going to want a more lively party afterwards than we adults do, particularly since we usually start with a dharma talk and then have a formal feast practice! I'm thinking dharma wheel cupcakes and maybe three jewels sugar cookies, but there needs to be some kind of activity. What have others done to celebrate cub scouts earning Metta Awards?
