Heya Taikyo! I'm consulting the preceptors about yours. We have another person registered with that name, so I can't change it quite yet. I'll be in touch as soon as we figure something out!

Question, does your o at the end of Taikyo have a diacritic? is it actually an ō ?

PS: Nevermind... it doesn't

Hi Koushi,

I had ambitions of being patient and waiting a few days before requesting a name change, but I'm too jazzed!

Could you please update my username to Tensei?

Thank you in advance.

Hi there! I can update your username to one you'd like, but Billy has already been taken by a member. Any other preference? It's OK to just sign your name at the end of a post as well.

Hi,

A "Dharma Name" is after one has undertaken the Precepts in Jukai, as we celebrated last night. Maybe you might undertake it sometime if it feels right.

I write this to folks ...

Our Jukai preparations start each September for the ceremony in January, with reflections and study on each of the Precepts and sewing a Rakusu, and you are more than welcome to join in if it feels right to you.


However, in my book, the most important thing is -not- the ceremony itself, which alone works no magic by itself. The ceremony is just a celebration and affirmation of our seeking to live gently, and to learn from the Buddhist teachings, right now and each day. The ceremony just celebrates and confirms that fact. More important is that you do your best, today, to live gently in a way helpful and healthy to oneself and others (who are "not two," by the way), avoiding harm such as excess desires, anger, violence, jealousy, ugly speech and the like. That is the real Jukai, undertaking the Precepts, each day.

In the meantime, remember that a "name" is not what we Truly are.
