What is the significance of ritual and ceremony in Buddhist practice? What is the meaning behind inviting in and making offerings to the ancestors? How can we prepare our own sanctuaries to support rituals of celebration and gratitude, rituals of seeing and listening? Grounded in Zenju Earthlyn Manuel’s recent book, The Shamanic Bones of Zen: Revealing the Ancestral Spirit and Mystical Heart of a Sacred Tradition, with a forward by Paula Arai, this conversation will engage the shamanistic dimensions of Buddhist practice, exploring the healing and transformative power of ritual and ceremony.
