Zazen for Beginners Series: THREAD for QUESTIONS, COMMENTS

[cvanhorn521]

I just finished the Zazen for Beginners series and enjoyed it very much. I appreciate the fact that they are available as podcasts as well which allowed me to listen to them on the go. Thank you for making these available. I look forward to Buddha basics podcasts next

Hello everyone

Are there stand alone recordings of the chants that I could download?

I am not sure about specific recordings (someone else here might know) but you can hear the regular chants in past YouTube videos on the channel in the Live section, like in the short and long Zazenkai's.

I think we have some somewhere around here. Let me check with those who actually know what goes on around here.

We have these for now ... Youtube. Our "Long Service" has the Heart Sutra (Hannya Shingyo) in Japanese, the Identity of Relative and Absolute (Sandokai) in English, and their Dedication of Merit at the end ...

... while our "Short Service" has the Heart Sutra in English with a Dedication:

We are working to see if we can convert those to Mp3 format too.

I joined many years ago, but never practiced with you . Over the years I’ve practiced off and on , mostly off. You sent me a “ Happy Birthday “ greeting anyway . That impressed me. I’m probably paraphrasing, but I remember “ That’s the secret to the arts, always be a beginner “ . Shunryu Suzuki. Talk # 1

I’m not too swift negotiating websites. I only have a smartphone. Your reply to a post I made yesterday ( and can’t find) was to ask me to change my username into one that has my name in it. I chose “ Randroid”. You also asked for a photo. I took a selfie ( I hate that word) this morning. I don’t know how to change my username or post the photo.

Hi, Randy. If you click on your photo in the top right corner of the page, you'll see the option of viewing your profile. Click on that, and then on the left side, on your profile photo, click edit avatar. It should allow you to do that from there. Let me know if you can't manage
