The ceremony of receiving the precepts is an ancient tradition in Mahayana Buddhism, and is symbolic of the vow to live the life of the Bodhisattva (living and practicing for the benefit of all beings). As part of the ceremony, the ordinands will receive Buddha’s Robe, lineage papers, and a Dharma name.
Join us on Saturday, January 14th at 2pm for the Jukai ceremony for Marta Kowalska-Porcz and Brandon and Myriam Loudermilk.
Reception to follow.
