The only zen you get on the top of a mountain is the zen you carry with you.

Some wild rabbits. If you continue down the road, you have a river too.

This is a kind of sign for already died ancestors.Fire is sign for them.

Obon is name of ceremony.Ancestor come back for us in this season and go back to their world.

Also fire and bell is same meaning, chanting is also.

This is also way of ceremony of Soto Zen sect.

Obon is not so common in all Soto Zen or groups in the West, because of less emphasis on ancestor worship and belief in the visit of the spirits of the Ancestors. Some Soto Zen groups do in America, but usually those with large Japanese-American membership. Similar ceremonies are also found in Chinese Buddhism.

In our Sangha, we have a memorial service to recall deceased family and friends together with Buddha's Parinirvana (Death) Day in February.
