Aloha members and
friends of Jodo Mission temples,
I'd like to let you
know Jodo Shu Young Ministers' Association in Japan has just started "The simultaneous NENBUTSU recitation meet" in commemoration of our founder Honen Shonin's memorial day in January
25th.
This is to chant
"Namu Amida Butsu" from anywhere in the world. Please join them in reciting Nenbutsu from your place. Honen Shonin said, "Wherever you hear Namu Amida Butsu shall be my memorial
site."
If you can submit an
entry form at their website below, you'll see a lotus picture on their special map. You can send/see a message to your beloved ones or somebody special in this world with a short message on
their website. All you need to do is,
1. Recite Namu Amida
Butsu from your place.
2. Fill out entry form. (For your concern about privacy, you don't
need to write exact address nor real name.) All they need is Name(nick name is fine), City Name, and Country Name. Street address and message are completely optional.
3. Press submit
button on their website.
4. Wait or come back
in 5 minutes.
5. Lotus flower will
be indicated on their map.
Mahalo for your
participation in advance. Please stay safe and enjoy chanting Namu Amida Butsu at home.
Gassho, Kosen
