We would like to inform you that a memorial service was held on January 28th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gokie is a memorial service held to commemorate the virtues of Honen Shonin on the anniversary of his death on January 25th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As you all know, Honen Shonin taught that anyone can go to the Pure Land by chanting the Nembutsu, "Namu Amida Butsu."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year marks 850 years since Honen Shonin founded the Jodo sect in 1175.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

On the day, more than 20 parishioners gathered. Thank you for attending despite the cold weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We read out the inscriptions for each stupa that had been applied for, and at the end of the ceremony we all chanted the Nembutsu together and renewed our resolve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After the sutra offering, the head priest spoke about why we value Buddhist practices.Here<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Finally, each person brought a stupa to be placed on the graves in the temple grounds and Joen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The next Buddhist ceremony will be held on the spring equinox. Until then, the weather will likely be colder than usual, so please take care of yourself.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":3512,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"swell_btn_cv_data":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3507","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-shokoji"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3507","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3507"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3507\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3512"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3507"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3507"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sk-j.or.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3507"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
