lol!! I told my husband I was getting a sex change this morning, he did not believe me.

Jundo, excellent suggestion, so glad you are open to ideas. Here's a few I'd love to see, and I would be more than happy to chant at zazenkai....

Britney is a Buddha just like you and I.

I think we should all get over our stiff roby holiness and own up to our greed and desires:

Hello,

Thank you for the lesson.

BTW for the entrepreneurs: still have franchise availability for Dogens' Donuts!
(Motto - " lf you're non-attached to emptiness, get 'attached' to Dogens' Donuts!" They're incomprehensible good/not good.)

Always right next door to "Enlightenment Hut". (Now with 24-hour drive-thru.)^^

Happy 1st

Deep bows

OK, as instructed I did the Britney practice and report back.

She's got some very good dancers in her crew, doesn't she?
Guessing from the dancing the Heart Sutra recorded versions, some of our unsui have the same talent.
So that's settled, but who would be doing the Britney part??

Gassho,

Well, I think it's time we dropped this whole "right speech" thing and embraced something with a little more NSFW language!

I thought it was a great idea. Been passing off song lyrics here for a long time.

Nenka, that is just hilarious!!!

Gassho,

smokin' some weed today

oops, I forgot, April Fool's is only until noon, so then, I did sit today, promise no weed, never

[Kyonin]

This morning I promised to myself I would not fall for phony headlines and would not believe anything from the sites I like. I was doing a good job until now...

I TOTALLY FELL FOR THIS!!

As I read I was thinking what is wrong with the Heart Sutra? What's wrong with our practice? Until I got to Britney Spears. I laughed hard!

Thanks Jundo!

Nenka, Thank you for that! Loved it!

And Joyo, I'm sure it was only sage.

Just brilliant for me too Britney's ordination brought some sense in my thinking finally although I do remember a zazenkai where you replaced the heart sutra with a housebeat from youtube. In a way it's not an entirely bonkers idea really.
