Description

SFZC's Beginners Mind Temple/City Center invites you to join us for these special ceremonies, as well as to be aware of the changes to our regular schedule. For more information, call 415.863.3136, or email ccoffice@sfzc.org.

Each month at the full moon, the community gathers to renew our Bodhisattva vows. All are welcome. This is a formal ceremony including chanting and full bows. If it is your first full moon ceremony or you are unfamiliar with the forms, please follow others in offering incense or flower petals before entering the Buddha Hall and be sure to take a chant card. For more information, contact the office at 415.863.3136.
