New Years Day 2018
The Twelfth Gate
Mindfulness of precepts is a gate of Dharma illumination;
for [with it] we fulfill all vows
Vows :
a solemn promise, pledge, or personal commitment, an earnest declaration or resolve
May we, together with all beings
Review and renew our vow of the precepts
That we may keep steadfast on the path.
May this offering bring peace to all beings
May our actions contribute to the harmony of The Universe
And, may all hearts and minds be opened to The Present

仁道 生開 - Jindo Shokai "Open to life in a benevolent way"
Just another itinerant monk; go somewhere else to listen to someone who really knows.
