Bodhi Day Service

About this event

Bodhi Day celebrates the day that Siddhartha Gautama discovered Enlightenment and became Shakyamuni Buddha. By his example, Siddhartha showed us that it was possible for a human to become a Buddha, a Perfectly Enlightened One. Welcome to our weekly Family Service. We are a community of Jodo Shinshu Buddhists which is a Pure Land tradition in the Mahayana School of Buddhism. What this means is that we are concerned not only with our own lives but for the lives of others. We hold services in-person in our Hondo (chapel) and we also stream our services live (and services can be accessed later in either video or podcast formats). If you plan to attend in person please observe our In-Person Attendance Policy or if you wish to attend virtually please contact the temple office for information. more information: MBT Welcome Brochure Online Dharma Talks In-Person Attendance Policy
