Eitaikyo and Osuna Fumi Service 2021
Eitaikyo and Osuna Fumi Services
On November 21 at 9:30 AM, we will be having our annual Eitaikyo and Osuna Fumi Services.
Eitakyo Service is a perpetual service dedicated to members who asked the temple to conduct an annual memorial service every year. Many of the members who do not have a family to take care of them after their death or those who wish not to burden their family may choose to have the temple take care of them.
We offer two types of perpetual care currently:
1) Eitaikyo (Perpetual) Service = Minimum donation of $300 to have your name in the Eitaikyo Chronical Book
2) Nokotsudo Perpetual Care = Minimum donation of $3000, where the ministers perform prayers every morning: We will reserve a niche in our columbarium.
Osuna Fumi is a special service where we bring out the 33 Kannon Bodhisattvas that are enshrined on the altar. If you have been wondering what is the small Buddhas on the altar, this would be the only chance for you to see it close. These Kannon Bodhisattvas are hand-crafted and very delicate statues. They represent the 33 main Buddhas of Western Japan’s temples that are recognized as
Saigoku 33 Kannon. Many people throughout Japan and around the world travel for the pilgrimage and pray to the 33 Kannon Bodhisattvas.
If you are interested or have questions about Eitaikyo (Perpetual Care), please call the temple. We will be doing our best to keep Social Distancing and follow the State and City order to keep the service safe for everyone. However, we will also be providing a live-streaming service for those who wish to join us from the safety of your home. Visit us on our YouTube at https://youtu.be/i1IqR0JMt-Q
