OBON Ceremony - August 9th

OBON CEREMONY                      August 9th 2015
On Sunday evening, an intimate group gathered  to remember those who have gone before us - to honor and recognize our physical and spiritual ancestors.

The Obon ceremony began at the Temple and then proceeded by candlelight up to the Shao Shan Temple Cemetery where we chanted while circumambulating the Ceremonial Circle. The evening concluded with a dedication at the fire altar in front of the Temple.
