With resilience and determination, timeless teachings in Las Vegas can flourish once again. Guided by compassion, wisdom, and the indomitable spirit of the Buddha, this newly re-created sanctuary of healing and transformation is for all visitors and locals who seek solace and enlightenment. Inspiring also gamblers to discover the boundless potential within themselves. The Las Vegas Buddhist Temple was first established in 1989 by the esteemed Abbess Venerable Hui Kuang under the Humanistic Buddhism teachings of Venerable Master Hsing Yun. The original Temple served as a beacon of spiritual guidance and community service in Nevada for over three decades. Destroyed by a devastating fire in 2019 the Las Vegas Buddhist Temple and Asian Cultural Center will reopen this month. Resilience, unity, and spirit – a strong point of Sin City Las Vegas. Mr. Newman Arndt and his husband, Mr. Johnathon Arndt, were deeply moved by the enduring influence of the former Temple in May 2021. They were introduced to the Abbess Venerable Hui Kuang, Deputy Abbess Venerable Yin Kin, and Director Venerable Man Jing by dedicated Buddhist disciple Mr. Steven Chow. The Arndts felt a profound inner calling to support the restoration of this sacred sanctuary. The Las Vegas Buddhist Temple is committed to spreading the Dharma’s wisdom, which reflects the eternal teachings of Sakyamuni Buddha. This sacred place serves as a gathering spot for souls seeking solace, where minds can awaken to the deep truths of Buddhism and lives can be enriched by the serene wisdom of the ages. Inspired by the Temple’s extensive past and driven to overcome the financial obstacles that impeded its reconstruction, Mr. Newman Arndt and Mr. Johnathon Arndt emerged as contributors and sponsors, encompassing the dual roles of patrons and creators of the fresh Temple. The new Temple will provide continuous education and inspiration to people worldwide by utilizing advanced technology to share the timeless teachings of Buddhism. This Center would serve as a vibrant bridge between Eastern and Western cultures, collaborating with a harmonious coexistence among diverse cultures, religions, and generations. Mr. Newman Arndt and his husband, Mr. Johnathon Arndt, have provided generous funding for the Asian Cultural Center. This center will uphold the long-standing tradition of sharing ancient Buddhist teachings and promoting Asian cultural programs. Moreover, it will prioritize education, philanthropy, and community involvement. Through collaborations with international universities, the center strives to enhance young individuals’ opportunities to discover and learn about Asian cultures. The educational fund will play a pivotal role in supporting scholarship programs, showcasing the center’s dedication to global progress. In the spirit of philanthropy, the Asian Cultural Center will support non-profit organizations worldwide, ranging from orphanages, student scholarships, and food banks to animal rescue projects, thus extending its reach beyond local boundaries. The temple is inviting visitors to experience a transformative journey of Buddhist teachings and Asian culture, right in the nexus of Las Vegas, within the sacred sanctuary that has been reborn with renewed vigor, purpose, and unity.

A woman from Ghana’s capital city took a monumental shot at the world record for the longest continuous singing during the Christmas Holidays. Afua Asantewaa Owusu Aduonum from Accra commenced her ‘sing-a-thon’ on Christmas Eve, on Sunday, December 24 and concluded it the following Friday, December 29, after an impressive performance that lasted 126 hours and 52 minutes. Asantewaa’s endeavor aligned with Ghana‘s push to draw in a larger number of tourists and showcase its rich cultural heritage, particularly its music. Just recently, the government introduced a visa-on-arrival initiative for tourists visiting the former British colony during the Christmas and New Year festivities as part of the ‘Beyond the Return’ campaign. This ten-year campaign aims to inspire individuals from the African diaspora to rediscover and reconnect with Ghana. The Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) has named the 33-year-old businesswoman as its tourism ambassador as a gesture of appreciation for promoting the attention on Africa’s biggest gold producer. This country is considered one of the most peaceful nations on the continent, as per the Global Peace Index. Afua Asantewaa’s appointment to this role will enable her to closely collaborate with GTA in promoting and marketing the country both domestically and internationally. According to GTA officials, Asantewaa’s achievement greatly benefits the country and it is crucial to utilize Afua Asantewaa’s personality for this purpose. Asantewaa’s continuous performance of local songs during the five-day event received massive backing from Ghanaians, including former President John Dramani Mahama and current Vice President Mahamadu Bawumia, both of whom are contenders for the highest office in Ghana’s upcoming 2024 elections. According to reports, Asantewaa has allegedly surpassed India’s Sunil Waghmare’s record of singing for 105 hours, which he held since 2012. Unlike Waghmare, Asantewaa is not a professional singer, leading some Ghanaians on social media to doubt her ability to achieve this feat. However, she reportedly managed to unofficially exceed the record by an additional 21 hours. Guinness World Records (GWR) responded to a comment on Facebook alerting it to Asantewaa’s completion of her attempt on Friday, describing the event as one that “certainly seems to have captured the public’s imagination.” According to the Guinness World Records’ Facebook comment about Asantewaa’s achievement, the event has resonated with the public. The GWR judges expressed their anticipation in receiving evidence in order to assess whether Asantewaa has achieved the record for the longest individual singing challenge. In the meantime, Ghanaian cook Faila Abdul Razak commenced a cooking marathon at midnight on Monday with the goal of surpassing Irish chef Alan Fisher’s existing world record of 119 hours and 57 minutes. Fisher dethroned Hilda Effiong Bassey, a Nigerian chef, as the world record holder for the longest cooking marathon in November, after she had held the title since June of the previous year. Ghanian chef is aiming to cook continuously for over 120 hours with the goal of dethroning Fisher and regaining the championship for West Africa.
