O-Segaki - "Ceremony of feeding the Hungry Ghosts"

Sunday October 29
Zazen: 9:00am
Ceremony: 10:00am


During our annual Segaki ceremony we make offerings to the hungry ghosts, both without and within, unlocking their inability to receive nourishment, as well as nourishing ourselves. We also read the names of those close to us who have passed away between last year's ceremony and this year's, not because they have become "gaki," or Hungry Ghosts, but because the liberation we offer extends to all beings, to the myriad spirits of the three worlds. This year, our festival will be preceded by an opportunity to gather in a multi-day meditation intensive or sesshin.
