TRAVEL DIARY: DHARMA TRACKS Across AMERICA (7/16-8/26) & WASHINGTON RETREAT (8/9-14)

[Oheso]

gassho Jundo, I was working at the National Museum of the American Indian at 1 Bowling Green Thursday and Friday last week. You guys must've walked past the building at the foot of Broadway- hope Leon got to see it's magnificent front entrance. Will you be coming back to NYC? when/ where? travel safely,

gassho, oheso

[Jundo]

Hi Oheso,

I felt your presence!

We will be back briefly from the afternoon of Thursday July 31st to Saturday night August 2nd, staying at the Westside YMCA. Sunday, August 3rd, I will be in New Jersey where Daijo has kindly arranged for me to sit and speak with Genki Kahn Roshi's Sangha there. Maybe we can meet somewhere in there.

Gassho, Jundo

Hey Guys,

Made it to Dosho's place in upstate New York. We had a little informal sit of 30 minutes. I was very wobbly, as jet lag seemed to hit me. Please remember and come sit with our Zazenkai in the morning here. KellyRok will be here to sit too.

Haha!
Don't feel bad Nindo.
I've been here since April, and only today I caught on to the joke in "Sharing Helpful and Insightful Tips"

I might add for Oheso, or anyone else in the NY Metro area, there is an open invite to join us at Zen Garland Sanctuary on Sunday morning. The Sanctuary is located in Airmont New York (bordering Mahwah NJ) and morning services/zen begin at 8:00 AM. Hit me up if you're interested in joining us.

Great to see everybody - good on you Kelly for joining them! I didn't sign in live because I had to put breakfast on the table and get ready for work. Still, nice to start the day with the heart sutra.
Gassho,
