What is a detail description of a buddhist service?
Posted on May 31st, 2010 by admin
I need to write a report on a buddhist service. I normally attend a roman catholic mass, and I must include a comparison of the two masses.
it depends on the sect of Buddhism that you’re comparing to, really. They can be as diverse as any of the Christian gatherings (if you haven’t, try visiting another Christian church and you’ll be surprised how formal Roman Catholicism is).
The only one I’m familiar with is Nichiren Buddhism, and it’s been years since I’ve been at one of their gatherings so I’m not the best direct resource. I’m sure, if you decide to pursue this group, that you can contact someone from Soka Gakkai International for some information on it. http://www.sgi.org/

"Services" are a practice, but not our only practice. For many Buddhist sects, they aren’t even a major part. Compare it to attending Mass without going to confession. Anyway, the link below gives details for Japanese Jodo Shinshi Buddhism, and notes on how some other sects are different. Good luck on the paper.
