Eitaikyo Dharma Service for Sunday, November 16, 2025 with a Dharma Talk by guest minister Rev. Yuika Hasebe of Honpa Hongwanji Hawaii Betsuin. This Jodo Shinshu Buddhist service was officiated by Rev. Hasebe.

The Eitaikyo Service is a memorial service that honors past Windward Buddhist Temple Dharma followers & temple leaders who came before us. It is through their efforts that the Dharma continues to be shared at WBT to successive generations. Eitaikyo is one of the six special services held by Jodo Shinshu temples during the year.
