Event Details

… is a deep, almost dreamlike image of the ‘crossing over’ – awakening, realisation – spoken about in Buddhism, that brings with it a rich sense of the many beings whose lives companion us and make our own life possible.

On this evening, we’ll board the ancient ferry, to begin to explore its resonance with suffering, release from suffering, and awakening.

Here’s a poem by the 11th century Zen master, Hongzhi, to whet your curiosity:

When, by the side of the ancient ferry
The breeze and the moonlight are cool and pure,
The dark vessel turns into the glowing world.
