Resumo

“What are your plans for this weekend?” a friend of mine asked me, two years ago. “We are going to hold a Hoji-party (or service) on behalf of my mother. Since she knew my mother has been dead for many years, she asked more details about Hoji, and I explained that it is a Buddhists’ reunion among family members and relatives in commemoration of the deceased.
