Ryaku Fusatsu

The Buddha taught that the Uposatha day is for "the cleansing of the defiled mind," resulting in inner calm and joy. On this day, we intensify our practice to deepen our knowledge and express our communal commitment through millenia-old acts of lay-monastic reciprocity.

All dedication services start at 6 PM and will include Zazen, Kinhin, Sutra chant, Great Vows, Dedication Vows, Dharma talk and tea. There are a great number of bows in this ceremony as we share our dedication to release our violations of the Buddhist way and to commit to live a life of kindness and compassion.
