The morning ceremony is the first of the two important ceremonies (morning & evening) in Buddhist monastic life. The morning ceremony takes place before dawn when the environment is quiet and peaceful. This is an ideal time to clear the mind for cultivation and for reflection on the inner self. The ceremony consists of reciting the Incense Praise, the Shurangama Mantra, the Heart Sutra, the Buddha Praise & recitation of the Buddha’s name, making the vows of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, taking refuge in the Triple Jewels, singing the Wei-Tuo Bodhisattva Praise and the Sri Maha Devi Dharani. Finally, the merit from the ceremony is returned to all living beings. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
