For Bodhisattvas
Those who have formally taken the Bodhisattva Precepts are asked to wear their robe and sash. If attending in person, bring the robe and sash to the Center in a pouch and put it on just before entering the Chan Hall. If participating from home, create a dedicated space for practice and put on the robe and sash just before joining the Zoom gathering.
If you would like to come before 6:30 pm to do repentance prostrations, you are welcome to do so.
To receive the private Bodhisattva Precepts Zoom link (Room 1), please email tallahassee.chan@gmail.com with the year you received your Bodhisattva Precepts, along with the group and context in which you took them.
The public is welcome to join from 7:00 pm onward via the Room 2 Zoom link above, or in person at the Chan Center.
