Twice a year at AZC we hold Jukai (the Buddhist Taking-the-Precepts Ceremony), one at Matariki (Māori New Year), and one on 31 December. At both of the Jukai Ceremonies , we renew our commitments to the 16 Precepts that are the foundation of Buddist practice. In this talk, Roshi Amala Wrightson introduces the AZC Jukai Ceremony and explores some of the symbolism and traditions associated with the ceremony.
