                  Endless (virtual) bows for this. I always think to myself how much merit and good karma you must accumulate for allowing those of us who wouldn't make it a week in a Monastery in Japan to have access to this incredible practice. In today's day and age, it seems so behind the times to limit its benefit to only those who are physically capable of sitting for hours on end in full lotus.

                    Thank you for sharing.

                    Econ though I knew there was a stand alone Zendo, every time I saw the stairs in the background, I half expected someone's mother to come down them and say "it's time for dinner, do your friends want to stay!"

                      Very nice Zendo. It was always interesting to me how it looks from all angles.
                      Thank you for the to tour, Jundo.

                        Thank you for the tour, Jundo. You have a beautiful yard and Zendo. I did have a little laugh as it looks like baby Buddha is in a time-out spot. lol

                          What an awesome tour Jundo ... next time I think it will be in person, as I like to sweep. =)

                            The second floor, up the stair is storage, and a little art gallery of friends of Treeleaf who have donated some paintings and photographs over the years.
