The Jukai Ceremony (Receiving the Precepts) is a traditional Buddhist ritual in which a student formally undertakes the Bodhisattva Precepts and publicly affirms their commitment to the Buddhist path. It symbolizes entering the community of Buddhist practitioners and embracing a life of ethical practice and compassion. During the ceremony, participants receive a rakusu (a symbolic garment) and a Dharma name that reflects their spiritual journey. Jukai emphasizes the aspiration to live with mindfulness, kindness, and integrity, while vowing to benefit all beings.

After the ceremony there will be a reception in the study (around 3pm). We’ll be online there as well. Please join us!!!
