［Enjoying Kyoto in Summer 2023] Held at Temples in Kyoto! Dawn Lecture (Summer Early Morning Dharma Talks)

Gyoten Lectures are held from July to early August. This year, Kyoto's summer tradition, known to those in the know, will be held in various locations.
The time spent placing one's hands in front of the Buddha and listening to the stories of monks and celebrities will surely help one to reflect on oneself and clear one's mind.
