    "A person should train right here & now.
    Whatever you know as discordant in the world,
    don't, for its sake, act discordantly,
    for that life, the enlightened say, is short." - The Buddha

    Dear sangha, our monthly Fusatsu is coming up on the 11th, so you are all invited next Sunday, to chant together the Precepts, to atone, recommit and take refuge. It is always a wonderful occasion. Please see above post for details. You can also have easy access to all the digital resources for this meeting on our website HERE>>
    See you Sunday

        What a joy to see so many of you, today!
        To atone, seek refuge, to recommit to and to recite the Precepts together very much falls under the "to seek as best as I can, in this body and life" part of our vows. Thank you for supporting me and everyone else in putting forth our best efforts!

            Hi, Risa! Actually, the Fusatsu is on the 15th! That's next week! Also, the whole ceremony lasts just a bit over half an hour. You'd always be welcome to attend for as long as you can, no problem if you have to leave early. We gassho and excuse ourselves if it's needed. I hope to see you next week!

            By the way, Risa, would you please add a photo of yourself to your profile? We do our best to keep things huma and personal here and looking each other in the face helps with strengthening the feeling of community. Much appreciated
