SUMMARY:Cheondo Jae (Ullambana 우란분재) - Memorial Service for Dearly Departed
DESCRIPTION:Memorial Service for Dearly Departed – Cheondo Jae (Ullambana 우란분재)\n \nSunday\, October 25 @ 9:30 am – 3:00 pm\nAt Camp Washington\, Lakeside\, CT\nDana: $100 / Memorial nameplates available\nCheondo Jae is a Buddhist ceremony in which food offerings are made to console and liberate the deceased from any suffering\, especially those of one’s ancestors. The ceremony originates from the story of the disciple Mahāmaudgalyāyana who strives unsuccessfully to liberate his deceased mother from a lower realm of existence. The Buddha teaches liberation is only possible through the collective intention of the sangha at large.  \nIn this yearly ceremony\, we commemorate the Ullambana Sutra by making offerings and generating goodwill and liberation for all. In Korea\, the ceremony is held on the Buddhist All Soul’s Day\, or Baekjung (Kor. 백중\, Chin. 百中\, the fifteenth of the seventh lunar month)\, and constitutes one of the important events of the day to console the souls of the dead. At White Lotus Haven Zen of Connecticut\, we hold this ceremony in October. \nParticipants are invited to offer the names of their departed to be displayed and recited in the liturgy. If you would like your dearly departed to be acknowledged in the service please email venerableshimbo@gmail.com for more information and instruction\, or include the names of your departed with your registration in the “message” section of the contact form. A symbolic nameplate burning rite\, to eliminate unwholesome karmic conditions\, will also be performed.  \nA luncheon reception will be held after the service. \n  \nPLEASE REGISTER FOR THE EVENT HERE \nhttps://wlhz.org/contact/ \nMAKE CEREMONIAL DONATIONS HERE\, OR IN PERSON \nhttps://wlhz.org/donate/
