Über das Buch
I hope you will enjoy the precious moments captured in these images and the Japanese Buddhist culture they represent. We honor our departed loved ones, those who have recently passed on, as well as our amilial and spiritual ancestors throughout space and time, remembering that our lives are intertwined with theirs.
Through costume, dance, music, food, and ritual, the Bon Dances keep Japanese Buddhist culture in Hawaii vibrant and alive.
I trust you will see all of this and more in these telling photographs by our local photographer, artist, documenter, and friend, Randy Magnus.
With palms together in gassho,
Rev. Jiko Nakade
Daifukuji Soto Mission
