Ikebana • Flower Arrangement
The art of Flower Arrangement had its origins in early Buddhist altar flower offerings. Elements that make up this exquisite art are: the plant material, the container, the placement of the branches, their relationship to the container and the surrounding space. (Rev. Unno)
Flowers symbolize the truth of impermanence. Blossoms are beautiful in the morning but wilt in the heat of the day. All things are in constant change and should be appreciated in the "Eternal Now." - Rev. Gyomay M. Kubose (Buddhist Temple of Chicago)
