10 am Shotsuki monthly and Eshinni, Kakushinni, all Buddhist women memorial service – Rev. Sala Sekiya

Eshinni-ko and Kakushinni-ko are remembered for their support, as wife and daughter respectively, of Shinran Shonin. Shinran developed the profound insights that are the basis for Jodo Shinshu, but he had not intended to start a new school of Buddhism. It is through the seminal efforts of Kakushinni-ko that Shinran’s teachings are available to us now, nearly 750 years later.

Rev. Sala Sekiya of Gardena Buddhist Church will deliver the dharma message.
