FULL MOON Bodhisattva Ceremony

  • Milwaukee Zen Center 2825 N Stowell Ave Milwaukee, WI 53211 USA (map)

Every month, on the full moon morning, we renew our bodhisattva precepts in an ancient ceremony.
Coming up, on Wednesday, February 16, at 7:30 am, in the place of morning service, after zazen.
Everybody who has received the COVID vaccines is welcome in the zendo , and practitioners who have received the precepts, are especially invited. You may also join us on zoom, with the regular link:

We may not have a doan ringing the bells, but the sangha will recite after the priest. Though muted on zoom, you can read the text with us, which you will find under “Liturgy”.

The full moon has a special meaning in Zen: As it is reflected in each dewdrop, so is buddhanature reflected in each of us.
