Jukai (receiving the precepts), also called lay ordination, is a ceremony in which a Zen practitioner makes a formal commitment to practicing the bodhisattva precepts and receives a dharma name, rakusu (small garment in the form of the Buddha’s robe, which they have hand-sewn), and both a traditional lineage paper, and a women’s heritage document.

Five sangha members will receive the precepts in this ceremony: Nik Bladey, Jason Dunphy, Seph King, Wynnie Smithies and Moe Zakzouk. Please come out to support them and celebrate. Everyone welcome! Including online folks—Zoom link below.
