April 8th is known as Buddha Day, or Hanamatsuri, in honor of Amida Buddha's birthday. To honor that we hold a "Buddha Day Service" every year. This year, on April 7th at 9:30 AM the Honpa Hongwanji Hawaii Betsuin Temple on Pali Highway will hold a Buddha Day Service with guest speaker Dr. Willa Tanabe. She will be presenting on the topic "Sparking Joy by Preserving the Past".

We hope you will join us on Sunday April 7th! A short bio for Dr. Willa Tanabe is below.

After having received her doctorate from Columbia University, Willa Tanabe taught Japanese and Korean Art History at the University of Hawaii at Manoa for 29 years. She has published books, articles and catalogs on the arts associated with The Lotus Sutra, Shingon, and Pure Land Buddhism as well as on textile arts. She also curated exhibitions on Korean art, Japanese embroidery, Shingon art, and Japanese prints. Dr. Willa Tanabe also served for a number of years as Dean of the School of Hawaiian, Asian and Pacific Studies at UH. After retirement, she and her husband George, a Professor of Japanese Religions, published a book on the Japanese Buddhist Temples of Hawaii and presented an exhibition of temple art at the Japanese Cultural Center. Banners from this exhibition will be on display in the Social Hall. ...
