Jukai - Formal Student & Precept Ceremonies




 Shao Shan Temple
Sunday, July 3, 2016






This year Judy Harden made her commitment to become a formal student of Shao Shan Temple.  She received the 16 precepts, her Buddhist name and has become Taihaku’s student.






Max Schlueter, Susan Calza, Rob Lamb, Scott Fields and Glenda Bissex received the first five Bodhisattva precepts and have made their commitment to a Buddhist way of life.







This ceremony was an occasion for the families and friends of those receiving the precepts and Sangha members to join together in support of the commitment that Judy, Max, Susan, Rob, Scott and Glenda are entering. 

Thank you to everyone who joined together with us in a spirit of renewal of your commitments and intentions which support a life beneficial for all.
