The Everyday Sangha recently begana new study of the book, Heart of the Shin Buddhist Path: A Life of Awakening by Takamaro Shigaraki, with the first meeting on that focus on Saturday, March 25, 2023 at 10:00AM EDT U.S. The next meeting is Saturday, April 8th, 2023 at 10:00AM EDT U.S.

Our meetings consist of service first, including a short meditation period, traditional vow recitations and other invocations (refuge, bodhisattva vows, etc.) and some chanting. The service introduces more ritual and liturgy into the structure of our meeting, much like you would find at a non-virtual Buddhist temple, church, or sangha.

The service includes a Dharma talk by one of the practice leaders or myself, Wendy Shinyo Sensei, and occasionally a Dharma Glimpse by a volunteer sangha member. After the service, we open it up to discussion of the current book study or of anything that was inspired by one of the Dharma talks.

Consider joining the sangha at this time to be a part of the new study, practice, and a warm and welcome sangha community! (Learn more about us with this presentation).
