SUMMARY:Hanamatsuri Service
DESCRIPTION:Hanamatsuri celebrates the birth of Siddhartha Gautama\, who later became Shakyamuni Buddha\, in Lumbini Garden. This holiday is commonly known as Hanamatsuri\, or Flower Festival. It is also called Kan-bustu-e\, or Bathe the Buddha gathering\, because at this observance\, a statue of the baby Buddha stands in a flower-covered shrine in a shallow bowl filled with sweet tea. Participants at this service come up to the shrine and\, using a small ladle\, pour some of the sweet tea on top of the small statue. \nWelcome to our weekly Family Service. We are a community of Jodo Shinshu Buddhists which is a Pure Land tradition in the Mahayana School of Buddhism. What this means is that we are concerned not only with our own lives but for the lives of others. \nWe hold services in-person in our Hondo (chapel) and we also stream our services live (and services can be accessed later in either video or podcast formats).
