Rev. Sol Kalu
Dharma Service for Sunday, March 2, 2025 with a Dharma Talk by Rev. Sol Kalu. This Jodo Shinshu Buddhist service was officiated by Rev. Kalu. Rev. Buddha discusses a frequently asked question about Jodo Shinshu Buddhism, "Is Buddha a God?"
Programming note: We had an issue with the primary audio recording for the service. We had to use a backup audio recording, which is not as clear. We found the problem and it should be corrected for next week's service.
