Attended online services at Myosho-ji, Wonderful Voice Buddhist Temple, Charlotte, NC. The service included the eye-opening ceremony for an Omandala to be presented to Brandon, a member of the Charlotte temple who lives in Indiana.

Following the service Brandon thanked Ryusho Shonin and expressed his deep appreciation for the opportunity to attend the Charlotte services regularly. I felt guilty that I only attend Charlotte services when there are no services at the Sacramento Nichiren Buddhist Church. I suppose I should be happy with my good fortune, but today I felt greedy in comparison to those who don’t have a local sangha.
