Dear Dharma Friends,
Time passes swiftly, and we now find ourselves with less than two months remaining in this year.
I trust that you are all keeping well.
On the 8th of November, the 4th Remembering John meeting was held. Together, we watched a video tracing the many contributions made by Professor John White to Three Wheels, and read one of his Dharma talks.
Through his words, we once again felt the compassionate spirit of the Sangha that Professor White encountered at Shogyoji Temple in Japan, a spirit he wished to nurture and extend here in London.
Reflecting on how he faced and transcended the fear of death that comes to all of us, we were deeply moved by his noble example of Buddhist practice at the very end of his life.
In December, as is our yearly tradition, we will hold the London Eza, a gathering to look back on the past year together.
On this occasion, Reverend Yuichi Kuniyoshi will give a Dharma talk reflecting on the year’s activities since the 30th Anniversary Ceremony of the Establishment of Three Wheels last December, and share the insights he has gained through his involvement.
We very much look forward to hearing his first-ever Dharma talk in English, offered by one of our young priests, aged just twenty-four.
After the Eza, we will also hold our Annual End-of-year party.
You are warmly invited to share your musical performances or any special talents you would like to offer.
In addition, members of the Students’ Meeting are planning a special project as part of our fundraising efforts for Three Wheels.
We sincerely look forward to your kind participation.
With palms together,
Rev. Kenshin ISHII
Director of Three Wheels
Date and Time: Sunday the 7th December at 13:00
