    SACBC Fall Equinox (Ohigan) service

    This episode is an abbreviated version of the Fall Ohigan service on September 25, 2022. Here, I talk about participating in the memorial service commemorating the initial completion of an official logbook of all 120,000 persons of Japanese descent who were incarcerated during WWII. This project was headed by Duncan Williams, faculty of USC. What can we as Buddhists learn from this traumatic experience that many of our sangha members had to endure?

    Nurtured By Our Loved Ones

    Dharma Family Service for February 13, 2022. For Dharma School we take a look at who does the caretaking when we have someone to look after. We will share a children's story My Pet Wants a Pet by Elise Broach.  For the adult message, we take a look at the issue of how it is easy to find a false sense of self by identifying who our enemies are. Buddhism is a teaching of introspection that teaches us the problem never involves other groups of people, and that true peace begins by looking at the self.
