"PINK LADY" FLOWERS

The bulb was transplanted from Eileen Downy's
garden in San Francisco to 3600ft elevation on
Cobb Mtn. The plant grows wild in the coastal
region, but here it snows every winter. Now it
has bloomed for the first time, following 5 years
of acclimation.

"BODHISATTVA MONKS IN JAPANESE TRADITION"

*

The hour will include a short participatory liturgy, followed by an explanation of Tendai's all-encompasing vision dating from 800AD. Within this broad umbrella, California Tendai Monastery operates a more specialized temple where bodhisattva monks train on Cobb Mountain (Lake/Sonoma County) in the fire ritual called goma, the mountain-encircling asceticism called kaihogyo, and extensive recitation of sutras and mantras. Questions at the end.
