Seated Teachers: Jingen Sensei, Taikai Sensei, Museido Sensei, Kūhai Sensei, Shiho Sensei
On Saturday, October 18th, One Heart Sangha hosted a “Tri-Sangha” Jukai ceremony with Teachers and Candidates from Joyful Mind Zen Community and Harbor Light Zen Sangha.
Seven students confirmed their commitment to upholding and maintaining the Bodhisattva Precepts and to entering the stream of the lineage of the Buddha Way.
Over the past year, each recipient hand-crafted a Rakusu, or Buddha’s Robe, incorporating their deep desire to practice with each stitch.
Each prepared a personal lineage of teachers that reveals what brought them to this point.
Each copied the ancestral lineage from Shakyamuni Buddha down to themselves, to indicate their place in the continuation of the Dharma stream.
