      Deep bows to all of my fellow Jukai-ers. Deep bows to Jundo and Taigu for all they do. Deep bows to my Sangha!

      What a wonderful way to begin the day.

      Gassho.

          Deep bows for my Sangha family.

          Daizan.... "Great Mountain". A reference to my weight gain over the recent holidays..


          Edit. .. being funny aside ... I know the calligraphy and lineage paper are not about artistic beauty, but they are deeply beautiful and treasured that way too. Bows.

                  Congratulations 2013 jukai-ees!

                  Technical difficulties, schmeclical difficulties! All these people got together from 5 different countries (and who knows how many others in different countries will watch it). Let it sink in for a minute. Pretty amazing!

                              Congratulations, everyone!

                              After Jukai 2012, my practice became much more clear. I don't know if it was sewing the rakusu or simply knowing a bit more of the Dhamma through the process, but after Jukai I felt like instead of trying to do practice, I was practicing at last. I don't know if many of you feel the same, but if you do, this is an exciting time and we are all there with you.
