All Beings Zen Sangha

Hi hi fellow Sangha friends 🙂

For this three-month practice period, I will be Benji, aka Inryū’s administrative assistant ~~ helper with various Ango activities.

What does this mean?  Well, for starters I am the middle-man to help you connect with Sangha!  Inryū Sensei will be accepting Dokusan meetings all Ango, which gives the opportunity to have private one-on-one conversations with our teacher.  Practice period is a wonderful time to go inward + dive deeper within our practice; as we enter this three-month Dharma Gate, it’s nice to receive teaching and direction.  Another way to lean on Sangha is by sitting down/having a phone call with one of our senior practice leaders (Shinren, Shoryu, Myoshin, Seido, Koryu).  If either of these interest you, I’m your person to schedule these 🤗

As you may know from past Ango’s, we will start to have Way Seeking Mind Talks on Monday/Wednesday/Friday mornings (after a shorter period of zazen), as well as Tuesday Tea Talks at 2pm.  Way Seeking Mind talks, I find, can be also understood as Way ‘Finding’ Talks!  These are talks where we get to talk about our lives, and how we found our Zen practice in the start or maybe even within this year.  Now, Tuesday Tea Talks are a bit more casual, but also creative!  On Tuesday’s, we convene to hear the speaker of the week talk (or present via powerpoint and the likes) about whatever Buddhist-related topic they wish.  It is as long or short as you want the talk, and could even just be a big ole’ discussion with Sangha!  Super interesting, but also grounding to have tea in the afternoon with Sangha.  

We would like to hear from all of you, so at your earliest convenience please contact me at zenjoyclay@gmail.com to schedule your Way Seeking Mind talk (Monday/Wednesday/Friday) and a Tuesday Tea Talk if possible.  Practice period is from September 28 through December 21.  If you have any questions about anything, or if I can be of assistance to you this practice period in any way, please don’t hesitate to reach out.  I would love to help.  🙏zenjoyclay@gmail.com

RYAKU FUSATSU

Full Moon Bodhisattva Ceremony

Repentance (3 X call and response)

All my ancient twisted karma

From beginningless greed, hate, and delusion

Born through body, speech, and mind

I now fully avow.

Homages (1 X call and response)

Homage to the Seven Buddhas before Buddha.

Homage to Shakyamuni Buddha.

Homage to Maitreya Buddha.

Homage to Manjusri Bodhisattva.

Homage to Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.

Homage to Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.

Homage to the Succession of Ancestors.

Four Bodhisattva Vows (1X call and response)

Beings are numberless, I vow to save them,

Delusions are inexhaustible, I vow to end them.

Dharma gates are boundless, I vow to enter them,

Buddha’s Way is unsurpassable, I vow to become it.

Refuges

ALL: I take refuge in Buddha.

Doshi: Before all beings,

Immersing body and mind

Deeply in the Way

Awakening true mind.

ALL:  I take refuge in Dharma.

Doshi:  Before all beings,

Entering deeply the merciful ocean

Of Buddha’s Way.

ALL:  I take refuge in Sangha.

Doshi:  Before all being,

Bringing harmony to everyone,

Free from hindrance.

Pure Precepts

All: I vow to refrain from all evil

Doshi:  It is the abode of the law of all Buddhas;

it is the source of the law of all Buddhas.

All:  I vow to make every effort to live in enlightenment.

Doshi:  It is the teaching of anuttara samyaksambodhi

and the path of the one who practices and that which is 

practiced.

All:  I vow to live and be lived for the benefit of all beings.

Doshi:  It is transcending profane and holy and taking self

and others across.

Grave Precepts

All:  I vow not to kill

Doshi:  By not killing life the Buddha tree seed grows,

transmit the life of Buddha and do not kill.

All:  I vow not to take what is not given.

Doshi:  The self and objects are such as they are, two yet

one. The gate of liberation stands open.

All:  I vow not to misuse sexuality

Doshi:  Let the three wheels of self, object, and action be

Pure. With nothing to desire one goes along

Together with the Buddhas.

All:  I vow to refrain from false speech.

Doshi:  The Dharma Wheel turns from the beginning. There

Is neither surplus nor lack. The sweet dew 

Saturates all and harvests the truth.

All:  I vow to refrain from intoxicants.

Doshi:  Originally pure, don’t defile. This is the great 

Awareness.

All:  I vow not to slander.

Doshi:  In the Buddhadharma, go together, appreciate

Together, realize together, and actualize together.

Don’t permit fault finding. Don’t permit haphazard

Talk. Do not corrupt the Way.

All:  I vow not to praise self at the expense of others.

Doshi:  Buddhas and Ancestors realize the vast sky and the

Great earth. When they manifest the noble body,

there is neither inside nor outside in emptiness.

When they manifest the Dharma body there is not 

Even a bit of earth on the ground.

All:  I vow not to be avaricious.

Doshi:  One phrase, one verse – that is the ten thousand

things and one hundred grasses; one Dharma, one 

realization – is all Buddhas and Ancestors.

Therefor, from the beginning, there has been no 

stinginess at all.

All:  I vow not to harbor ill will.

Doshi:  Not negative, not positive, neither real nor unreal,

there is an ocean of illuminated clouds and an

ocean of bright clouds.

All:  I vow not to abuse the Three Treasures.

Doshi:  To expound the Dharma with this body is foremost.

The virtue returns to the ocean of reality. It is 

unfathomable; we just accept it with respect and

gratitude.

Dedication

Doshi:  Thus on this Full Moon morning (night) we offer the

Merit of the Bodhisattva Way through all world

Systems to the unborn nature of all beings.

All:  All Buddhas, Ten Directions,Three Times.

All Beings, Bodhisattvas, Mahasattvas.

Wisdom Beyond Wisdom, Maha Prajna Paramita.

Heart of Great Perfect Wisdom Sutra

Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva,

when deeply practicing prajña paramita,⨀

clearly saw that all five aggregates are empty

and thus relieved all suffering.

Shariputra,

form does not differ from emptiness,

emptiness does not differ from form.

Form itself is emptiness,

emptiness itself form.

Sensations, perceptions, formations,

and consciousness are also like this.

Shariputra,

all dharmas are marked by emptiness;

they neither arise nor cease,

are neither defiled nor pure,

neither increase nor decrease.

Therefore, given emptiness, there is

no form, no sensation, no perception,

no formation no consciousness;

no eyes, no ears, no nose, no tongue,

no body, no mind;

no sight, no sound, no smell, no taste,

no touch, no object of mind;

no realm of sight… no realm of mind consciousness

There is neither ignorance nor extinction of ignorance…

neither old age and death,

nor extinction of old age and death;

no suffering, no cause, no cessation, no path;

no knowledge and no attainment.

With nothing to attain,

a bodhisattva relies on prajña paramita,⨀

and thus the mind is without hindrance.

Without hindrance, there is no fear.

Far beyond all inverted views, one realizes nirvana.

All buddhas of past, present, and future

rely on prajña paramita ⨀ and thereby attain

unsurpassed, complete, perfect enlightenment.

Therefore, know the prajña paramita ⨀ as

the great miraculous mantra,

the great bright mantra,

the supreme mantra,

the incomparable mantra,

which removes all suffering

and is true, not false.

Therefore we proclaim the prajña paramita ⨀ mantra,

the mantra that says:

“Gate Gate ⨀ Paragate ⨀ Parasamgate Bodhi Svaha.” ∅

Loving Kindness Meditation

This is what should be accomplished by the one who is wise,

Who seeks the good and has obtained peace:

Let one be strenuous, upright and sincere,

WIthout pride, easily contented and joyous.

Let one not be submerged by the things of the world.

Let one not take upon one’s self the burden of riches.

Let one’s senses be controlled.

Let one be wise, but not puffed up: and 

Let one not desire great possessions even for one’s family.

Let one do nothing that is mean or that the wise would reprove

May all beings be happy.

May they be joyous and live in safety.

All living beings, whether weak or strong,

In high or middle or low realms of existence,

Small or great, visible or invisible, 

Near or far, born or to be born,

May all beings be happy.

Let no one deceive another, nor despise any being in any state;

Let none by anger or hatred wish harm to another.

Even as a mother at the risk of her life

Watches over and protects her only child,

So with a boundless mind should one cherish all living things,

Suffusing love over the entire world,

Above, below and all around without limit; 

So let one cultivate an infinite good will toward the whole world.

Standing or walking, sitting or lying down,

During all one’s waking hours

Let one practice the way with gratitude.

Not holding to fixed views,

Endowed with insight, 

Freed from sense appetites,

One who achieves the way

Will be freed from the duality of birth and death.
