SUMMARY:Mieko Yorimasa: The World of the Tale of Genji - Demonstration of Jyuni Hitoe
DESCRIPTION:Reflections on The Tale of Genji…Japan is a country blessed with four seasons; seeking beauty in the changing seasons\, living in harmony with nature\, and treating nature as divine.  A unique culture of respect for nature has been practiced in Japan.  The Tale of Genji\, elegantly depicting the lives of court aristocrats in this culture\, was created by Murasaki Shikibu more than 1000 years ago in medieval Japan. The aesthetic of expressing seasonal change by layering colored clothing is called kasane no irome\, or Juni-Hitoe (twelve layered Kimono)\, and was cultivated in the Imperial court. \nOne of the ceremonies held in the Imperial Palace was “mogi”\, a rite of passage into adulthood for girls.  Princesses wear mogi clothing for the first time at around age 14. \nNoble families with a daughter held a large-scale mogi ceremony to announce that the girl was ready to enter court and get married.   Today we will demonstrate this ceremony. \nMs. Emiko Yorimasa\,  founded Wabunka Densho Kyokai (Japanese Traditional Culture Association) in 2002 to revive and perpetuate Japan’s traditional culture &  art; giving renewed vibrancy to the Japanese spirit as it is passed on to a new generation.                                                                  Ms. Yorimasa serves as Chairman of both the Wabunka Densho Kyokai and the Sowa Kimono Gakuin. She is also a Director at the Sowa Vocational Training School\, an institute specializing in all facets of kimono attire and culture. Additionally\, Ms. Yorimasa is a member of the National Kimono Skills Certification Committee of the Ministry of Health\, Labor\, and Welfare\, and is herself a certified examiner. She also serves as a Central Examination Committee member for the All Japan Kimono Dressing Consultation Association.  With over 50 years of experience\, Ms. Yorimasa is one of Japan’s preeminent experts in kimono dressing and etiquette\, performing demonstrations; not only in Japan\, but also in England\, Italy\, Belgium\, Hungary\, China\, and Taiwan. \n

SUMMARY:Experience the Art of Sacred Mandalas with Healing Vocals
DESCRIPTION:Learn how mandala artist Kaho Koinuma creates pointillistic original drawings through prayer and devotion. How the mandalas have helped her through challenging times and supported expansion. How they continue to refl ect the true nature of all things and help her discover the Truth of her own being. And\, much much more…\nMandalas have been a sacred tool for meditation\, healing\, and transformation in most cultures throughout human history.\nA Mandala (Sanskrit word for “Circle\,” meaning wholeness\, unity\, oneness\, and womb fo creation) represents the infi nite layers of consciousness and geometric design of the universe.\nThe afternoon will also include a slideshow of over 60 mandalas with Sanskrit chanting by\, Vidya Yuka designed to invoke inspiration\, awaken the Heart\, and invite deep relaxation.\nSanskrit Chanting is the essence of Universal Love. This pure and sacred vibration (sound) was transmitted into the hearts of the great sages and passed down through aural tradition for over 5ooo years. Like mandalas\, they contain the wizdom and information from the Universe\, activate the remembrance of who one truly is\, and support the blossoming of one’s fullest potential. \nAfter the show\, one of her work was donated to Shneider Hospital Honolulu
