Dear Book Club Readers and All Treeleafers,
I just confirmed that the great Zoketsu Norman Fischer will be coming to lead a Zazenkai, offering a Talk, on Saturday January 5th (from 9:30 AM California time, should last about 90 minutes). So, he will help us celebrate the New Year at Treeleaf, right before our upcoming Jukai Ceremony too. Details will be posted before then, so keep an eye out.
For those who do not know him ...
I will post more about him in later announcements.
Gassho, Jundo
