It is mostly so I can get a local sitting group organized here ... and have a place for folks to sit when they visit ... away from Tin Tin the cat's "Katz" teachings ...

Dear Jundo
Wonderful and beautiful 'extension' for our Sangha gathering on the four winds.
Hope to meet and sit with you and other leafers there one day.
Between times (and out of time) ... sitting with you anyway.
Thank you for the energy and efforts you give to creating these lovely connections.

Deep bow
Nadi

well Jundo, im sold...

all i need now is the money to come visit for a while. unfortunately a flight to japan from israel costs about 900-1000 USD. which is too much money for me right now. but the way it looks makes me want to just say to hell with it and go there to sit with you.

hope to do so some day and sit with you in person.

Gassho, Dojin.

Hi,

Thank you guys, and I hope many of you will come to sit in it. Don't expect much when you come ... not a glorious temple or Shangri-la ... just a Japanese house, some farm buildings, one of which is now the Zen Hall. It is not fancy, not simple, not big, not small, not Japanese, not Western ... and all of those, just like this whole Sangha.

Of course, it is important to not be attached to any place, building or the things in it. The Buddha's Way is not limited by anything like that. Sitting where you are, sitting here, all the same ... different but the same. I built it mostly so I can get a local group sitting in our town, without the constant teachings of Master Tin Tin the Cat ("KATZ!").

Gassho, Jundo

Agreed and im not sure why !

Gets me thinking -Soon. Leaning in - lol like some perfect snapshot of a point - where all exausted paths collapse in and where all possibilities launch from - or I just like it cuz they are still new and shiny in plastic. I like shiny things!
