Sarana Service 2009
On Saturday, December 12, 2009, ten people begin their
journey on the Nembutsu path. The Sarana Affirmation
service is an opportunity for Jodo Shinshu Buddhists who
aspire to lead the Buddhist way of life to affirm their
dedication by appearing before the shrine of Amida Buddha
and taking refuge in the Three Treasures (Buddha, Dharma,
and Sangha). The ceremony was performed Socho Fujikawa
during his last visit to Winnipeg as the spiritual leader
of the Jodo Shinshu Buddhist Temples of Canada. Thanks to
Sensei Ulrich, all the participants, their friends and
families for attending.
