    Leaving a Scheduled Sitting Early

    Hello! I have young kids, and I’m curious what the sangha’s norms are on leaving scheduled sittings early (if my kids wake up and pull me away). Should I stick to the free sitting room if I could be interrupted, or is it OK if I sometimes have to leave early? Thanks!

    When urgency calls, such as the kids, just bow quietly in Gassho, and depart, signing out. It is no problem.

    However, please continue your "moving Zazen" in helping your kids.
