Kenji Sensei on the Spiritual Connections in Obon

Dharma Talk for Sunday, July 19 Is All About Spiritual Connections

In contemplating next week's Obon and Hatsubon service, Rev. Dr. Kenji Akahoshi discusses the spiritual meaning of Obon in realizing our connections to others and the universe. In his discussion, Sensei invokes the Buddhist concept of Ichi Go, Ichi E -- one life, one encounter -- to remind us that each time we meet a person it is a once-in-a-lifetime.
