Beep beep! The Mahayana turns out to be Hongwanji Hawaii's Buddha Bus, which was out yesterday in the Honolulu Pride Parade, spreading the good vibes of Amida Buddha's universal embrace of all people. Get on board, we're all going to the Pure Land together!

(also, the Hongwanji genso eko is going to be fabulous)

It's Pride season in Hawai'i! Are you thinking of coming out? Has your child come out? Hongwanji Hawaii has a full page of resources, with pamphlets on coming out and supporting your family member who has come out, videos of Buddhist LGBTQ discussions, links to Buddhist and non-Buddhist support organizations, and much more.
