What is Gyoki?
- Memorial Service for Honen Shonin
on Sunday, January 22
@10:00 am at Jodo Mission
In our Jodo Mission temples in Hawaii, Gyoki Memorial Services, are held in January of every year in honor of our founder, Honen Shonin. In Japan, the word Gyoki is used only for the memorial services for ancestors of the Emperor’s family. Placing his firm belief and trust in Honen Shonin’s teachings, the Emperor Gokashiwabara issued an edict in 1524, proclaiming that the word Gyoki is authorized to use for the memorial service of Honen Shonin.
In consideration of Emperor Gokashiwabara’s firm dedication to Honen Shonin’s teachings, what kind of a man must have Honen Shonin been to receive such special consideration? Of course, we know that Honen Shonin was the founder of our sect, but just being a founder of yet another of the long list of founders, of the many denominations of Buddhism introduced to Japan, could surely not be the sole reason for the Emperor’s edict. Honen Shonin must have possessed some outstanding qualities, which surpass those of the many other founders of Buddhist denominations in Japan.
Buddhism was introduced to Japan nearly 1,400 years ago, and in the beginning it was accepted by only a relatively small portion of the Japanese population. It was several centuries from the original introduction of Buddhism to Japan before the general public was able to really digest the Buddhist teachings, and seamlessly integrate them into the culture. Seven centuries later, perhaps the greatest of Buddhist reaches to succeed in pioneering this Cultural Revolution in Japan was none other than our own Honen Shonin.
Honen Shonin said, “In Buddhism there are eight thousand and four hundred teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha that are all of worthy our recognition, but the one that suits me best is the teaching of Nenbutsu. No matter how important a teaching may be, if it is only absorbed by the uneducated; or if it is accomplished by the rich yet not by the poor; or if it is observed by the virtuous yet not by the poor; or if it is observed by the sinful; or if it is understood by the adult but not by the young; if this were the case, then his teaching would only be appreciated by a very small fraction of the total population. In this sense, these teachings could never be deemed to be the teaching of true salvation for all. On the other hand, the recitation of Nenbutsu does not make any distinction in whatever, or wherever, we might be. The Nenbutsu can be recited by all people regardless of race, age, color, or gender. This teaching of the Nenbutsu was discovered by Honen Shonin amongst the eight thousand and four hundred teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha.
Honen Shonin taught us to just recite the Nenbutsu. Our genuine feelings are manifested in our sincere vocalization of the Holy Name of Amida Buddha. Therefore, when we recite the Nenbutsu, we have to say it loud enough that we can at least hear our own voice.
For the first time in history, Honen Shonin made Buddhism a religion for the laity, and as such, it very soon became a religion for the average people of Japan. Therefore, Honen Shonin’s tireless efforts became greatly appreciated by the succeeding Emperors of Japan; and in respect for his efforts, the Emperors have given Honen Shonin honorable, posthumous titles seven times in the past, where founders of the many other Buddhist sects in Japan have received such titles only once after their passing. The following are the seven titles given to our great founder, Honen Shonin, in the past:
Enko Daishi (The Great Sage who is a Guiding Light) give by the Emperor Higashiyama.)
Tozen Daishi (The Great Sage who propagated Buddhism Eastward) given by the Emperor Nakamikado.)
Ejo Daishi ( The Great Sage who perceived Wisdom) given by the Emperor Momozono.
Kogaku Daishi (The Great Sage who was broadly Awakened ) given by the Emperor Kokaku.
Jikyo Daishi (The Great Sage who taught Compassionate teachings )given by the Emperor Komei.
Meisho Daishi (The Great Sage who shines brilliantly) given by the Emperor Meiji.
Wajun Daishi (The Great Sage whose teaching is harmonious ) given by the Emperor Showa.
Honi Daishi (The Great Sage who was like True Nature) given by the Emperor Akihito.

Ojuya Service at Jodo Mission of Hawaii
November 7, 2021 at 10:00 am at Jodo Mission of Hawaii
(For each temple's schedule, please contact the temple)
Based upon the text of the Muryojukyo, Jodo Shu followers observe a unique ten days and ten nights of reciting the Nenbutsu. This practice is said to have been started by Taira-no-Sadakuni's Nenbutsu retreat at Shinnyodo in Kyoto in the early 15th century. Today, most temples in Hawaii observe Ojuya as a one day event called "Nenbutsu Day Service."

The 10th annual “24-Hour Ceaseless (Continuous) Nenbutsu Chanting will be observed remotely via internet again this year from Saturday September 25 at 1:00pm to Sunday September 26 at 1:00pm (Japan Standard Time).
The theme is "BRIGHT LIGHTS, BIG PIETY – Calling the Name of Buddha (Nenbutsu) in the Center of Kyoto”. However due to the current covid-19 situation, we ask you not to come to the temples but to participate in the live feeds as we did in Tokyo and Kyoto last year.
This time, Shojokein Head Temple will be our main central base for the Nenbutsu Chanting for 24 hours. At the same time, Kanchiin Temple and its sister temple Tamonin Temple, where the main office of 24 Hour Ceaseless Nenbutsu Association is located, will also broadcast Nenbutsu Chanting and connects live streaming from the various temples and places in Japan and other countries.
Please understand we are not accepting any general participation at the main sites on that day. Please join us online to recite “Namu Amida Butsu(bu)” together by watching the livestreaming videos from the main sites in Kyoto and from various places in the world while you are staying at home.
This year, in addition to the YouTube, you can participate in this online Nenbutsu by Zoom by using your smart phone, tablet or computer.
