The Buddhist House

Sunday Services

This service includes the main practices for a Pureland Buddhist; starting with our primary practice - Chanting Namo Amida Bu to the beat of a mokoju, then reciting the Tan Butsu Ge, doing prostration and making water offerings, reciting refuges and precepts, followed by walking, then sitting nembutsu, finishing with a Dharma talk and offering incense. After the service there is a vegetarian potluck supper. This is a great time for fellowship and getting to know each other better. The services will be led by lay and ordained members of Amida-shu.
