The Great River Tendai Sangha invites you to join us for:
Shakyo-Kai
A Day of Sutra Copying
Sutra copying is an ancient Buddhist practice that most Americans have never experienced. It is an active, yet meditative practice – one of many that are thought to lead to awakening.
Following a brief historical and instructional lesson, we will copy both a portion of the Heart Sutra and a section of the Lotus Sutra. The day will also include seated meditation, a short Dharma talk and group discussion.
Please bring a vegetarian lunch for yourself and a small snack to share.
A light vegetarian breakfast will be provided before service
