Full Moon Ceremony

Every month on the Wednesday evening closest to the full moon, the Austin Zen Center community takes part in the ancient Bodhisattva Full Moon Precept Ceremony, which consists of offering light, incense, flowers, as well as our bowing and chanting. No experience is necessary and it is very straightforward to simply follow along with the rest of the congregation!

This ceremony marks a public renewal of our commitment to the ethical practices known as the 16 Bodhisattva Precepts.
