    I am not sure I spelled that correctly. I would like to know more about this and how to become a part of it. Can some one let me know

    Hi Cheyenne,

    Jukai is held yearly and starts in September and finishes in January. Sewing the Rakusu is part of that process. So, the Sangha just finished the last Jukai training and the next will start next Sept. so I am afraid you just missed the last session.

    Here is a link to the Jukai announcement last Sept. in case it helps.



    And, just in case you missed them there are a couple of posts that talk about things that Jundo requests.

    One is about sitting each day before you post. Sat before Chat.

    Dear All, Treeleaf Sangha is a Practice Place centered on the daily Sitting of Shikantaza Zazen. We ask all our members to have sat Zazen sometime in the preceding day (today or yesterday) before posting in this Forum and joining in discussion. Please have "Sat" before any "Chat". gassho1 Also, both as


    And in this thread there is a request about having a picture of yourself.

    Dear Leafers, Our Forum is meant as a place where Sangha members can discuss honestly and frankly matters of Zen Practice and all of life (not two, by the way). We hope that people here feel the confidence, mutual trust and acceptance to be able to “open up,” drop walls, and talk about any subjects in their lives,


    If you need any help with that just let the forum know and someone can help walk you through it.

    Glad you are so excited to get started!

    Gassho, Shinshi
