Jundo/Taigu/All - thank you. This was the first group sitting I have been part of in over 10 years. My 2 am starts worked out OK with some naps thrown in here and there. Got most of the streaming too. From out of nowhere I came to finally realise the significance in sewing the rakusu.

kind regards

To Jundo and Taigu, all those who sat Rohatsu, those sitting it still, as well as those who will sit it: thank you for your practice and for sharing it.
Best wishes and kind regards.

I'm about halfway through my attempts at the retreat. Samu was manually heaving leaves over my back wall.

Well done to those completing the whole retreat. I dropped in once live and twice recorded on Sunday and late Saturday but was tied by 'other things'. I will make better efforts to arrange my time next time around.
Gassho to all, with thanks and 9 bows to Jundo and Taigu.

Re: DATE CHANGE: Our 'AT HOME' 2-day ROHATSU RETREAT Dec 4-5

Dear All,

Thank you to every-One (get it? ... "every-ONe" ... 8) ) who sat sits will sit this retreat.

I am in communist China today, where I cannot access Youtube or Justin.tv at all, so I cannot access the Retreat from here ... but I see it in my heart.

Gassho, Jundo

Just finished tonight. I am grateful beyond words for the opportunity to sit this retreat in my own home. Thank you Jundo & Taigu, and thanks to those who sat, and will sit. Thank you to those who sat along with me on G+; your company was the best of motivations.

Deep bows to all. My knees hurt, my heart is joyful. Also much gratitude to my husband for his support, and the Google+ circle of undeterred sitters. Now off to carry water and chop wood

So glad this is posted online... just no way I could do this in real time. Thankfully I will be able to catch up. Although there is noting quite like the sense of community when done as it happens, I guess the point is to drop all that. Deep gratitude to Jundo for making this available and everyone at Treeleaf who participated.

Re: DATE CHANGE: Our 'AT HOME' 2-day ROHATSU RETREAT Dec 4-5

Hi all,

I just wanted to let folks know that I'll be sitting the retreat this weekend on Saturday and Sunday, substituting US Eastern Time for Japan time on the schedule. Of course those who have already sat as well as those who will sit later are always sitting with me in every moment, but I still thought it worth mentioning.

Deep bows to all who undertake this retreat, anywhere in space and time...all right here!

Gassho,
Dosho

Re: DATE CHANGE: Our 'AT HOME' 2-day ROHATSU RETREAT Dec 4-5

Hey Dosho,

Perhaps I will try to catch a segment with you. Can't do the entire retreat this weekend as I got talked into being "Santa" for an animal rescue organization, which I have been working for (my Samu). In addition, my dad went in the hospital today and not sure when I will be needed. Nevertheless, if Sunday looks good I may try to coordinate.....I will convert to Eastern Standard time as well. Even if we don't connect we may be sitting at the same time. Hope to get the retreat in its entirety at a bit later date.

Gassho,
Jisen/BrianW
