Dawn Gyōten Lecture

The goal of our Dawn Gyōten Lecture is to help the listener reevaluate themselves and aid them in living a more fulfilled life. In the cool of the early morning, lecturers speak about a variety of subjects including Buddhism, life, culture, and health. This type of event is often held at temples, especially throughout the Kansai region, but it is also held in the Kantō region at temples such as Naritasan Shinshoji Temple and Kawasaki Daishi Heikenji Temple. Recently, it is even held outsides of Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines as it has become deeply rooted seasonal tradition for the people of Kyoto city. Each guest that joins in our Dawn Gyōten Lecture will be provided with complimentary tea and a souvenir from Chishakuin Temple. Participation is free. We hope to see many people there.
