Shumei San Francisco

Held in mid-March, this celebration commemorates Shumei San Francisco Center's 38th anniversary.

Shumei San Francisco Center

As we joyfully welcome the 38th Anniversary of Shumei San Francisco, we come together as family and friends to celebrate our shared spiritual journey on Sunday, March 16, 2025. This milestone is a testament to the light, harmony, and dedication that have guided our community for nearly four decades.The theme for this year is Aligning with the Divine: The Transformative Power of SampaiSampai is more than a ritual—it is a sacred moment of alignment with the Divine and Meishusama, fostering gratitude, clarity, and spiritual renewal. Just as the sun rises each day, Sampai serves as a daily awakening—an act of devotion that centers our hearts in gratitude and deepens our awareness of the sacred in every moment. By offering our prayers and chanting Amatsunorito, we attune ourselves to a wisdom beyond words, immersing in a flow of spiritual purification and renewal.Let us celebrate this special anniversary by deepening our practice of Sampai, strengthening our connection with one another, and welcoming a future filled with divine light and joy. <h3>Order of Ceremony</h3>10:50 AM PT: Opening Statement by MCAudio recording of English translation of the Zengensanji by Sheila Shaw11:00 AM: Chanting the Amatsunorito and Zengensanji led by Sensei Alan Imai<ul><li><a href="https://mailchi.mp/shumei.us/zengensanji?utm_source=The+Prayer+Vigil&utm_campaign=26b34def7e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2020_04_13_01_10_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_7eb35a0ac1-26b34def7e-&mc_cid=968b42d61b&mc_eid=f05c586cd1" title="https://mailchi.mp/shumei.us/zengensanji?utm_source=The+Prayer+Vigil&utm_campaign=26b34def7e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2020_04_13_01_10_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_7eb35a0ac1-26b34def7e-&mc_cid=968b42d61b&mc_eid=f05c586cd1" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Link to Chanting Guide</a></li><li>Group Jyorei by Sensei Alan Imai</li><li>Keynote Speech by Sensei Alan Imai "Essential Spiritual Practices of Shumei: Sampai"</li><li>Testimonial by Jon Paul Hutchins</li><li>Greetings by Hiroki Komai</li></ul>The Sampai is expected to close at around 12:30 p.m. (noon) <h3>Otamagushi Offering</h3>The San Francisco center is available to use Paypal and Venmo.<a href="https://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=LYABWU3DHJQSA&source=url" title="https://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=LYABWU3DHJQSA&source=url" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Otamagushi Offering for the Sampai by PayPal</a><a href="https://mailchi.mp/shumei.us/what-does-otamagushi-mean?mc_cid=968b42d61b&mc_eid=f05c586cd1" title="https://mailchi.mp/shumei.us/what-does-otamagushi-mean?mc_cid=968b42d61b&mc_eid=f05c586cd1" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">What Does Otamagushi Mean?</a> <h3>Healing Light Café: A Celebration of Nourishment and Renewal</h3>After the ceremony, join us for the Healing Light Café—a vibrant space to relax, connect, and rejuvenate.Savor delicious offerings from Natural Slow Café “Kokoro”, Eiko’s Onigiri Booth, and Thi’s Healthy Wellness Drinks Bar, and enjoy a special Powicana Farm Wine Tasting.
