Statues representing the thirty-three manifestations of Kannon were displayed throughout the grounds, and attendees offered prayers before each one. United in faith, the devotees experienced the boundless compassion and protection of the Bodhisattva, touching a profound sense of spiritual connection.
This year introduced a new initiative: free vegetarian meals for all attendees. The meals, prepared with care for both health and the environment, were warmly received. As a practice of Buddhist compassion, this offering carried great significance, fostering kindness and a shared sense of community through food.
Toward the end of the ceremony, an extraordinary sight appeared once again in the sky—clouds that seemed to take the shape of Kannon Bodhisattva. This awe-inspiring moment left a deep impression on the participants, reminding them of the sacredness of their faith.
Our Foundation will continue to organize such religious and cultural events, spreading the power of faith while connecting with charitable efforts to share the energy of love and harmony with the world.
