Keiji “Kuki” Kukino
Dharma Service for Sunday, November 8, 2026 with a Dharma Talk by WBT board member Keiji "Kuki" Kukino. This Jodo Shinshu Buddhist service was officiated by Rev. Yuika Haseba, Rimban (Chief Minister) at Honpa Hongwanji Hawaii Betsuin. Kuki was one of the founding members of Kailua Hongwanji Mission back in 1968, and as we prepare for our Eitaikyo Service next week, he shares the history of Kailua Hongwanji.
