      At this time it would be difficult for me to chant--however recitation is different--could someone post a link to our usual chants during Zazenkai, and other practices here at Treeleaf--thank you

        Hello Tai Shi,

        Normally be done do recitation with our chants, more of a monotoned chant. I will be doing up the Heart Sutra in English and if you wish, I can also do the Verse of Atonement and the Four Vows, as they are done during our Zazenkai, if that works and is helpful for you. =)

          Taikai thank you for asking! I try to use Zazenkai recordings sometimes but the words are often drowned out by the mokugyo, maybe something about the live broadcast sound/microphone. Shingen thank you for offering to do this, it will definitely be helpful... At least for those of us who don't like to chant alone, or would like to listen to our Treeleaf chants during travel, work breaks etc. without disturbing anyone. [emoji4]

          Gassho,

              Shingen, Thank you very much--My hope is to be with the Zazenkai this coming Friday--please feel free to post these chants in English if you have time--I used to have a very beautiful singing voice, and I think it better to say these in monotone chants at my age--thank you.

                Awesome. Thank you Shingen
                Since our Sunday sits at Shugen are not recorded I used to learn how to chant Heart Sutra
                and the rest using the Weekly Zazenkai recording's parts which wasn't always convenient.
                Now, having a separate recording would be great for folks.

                  Hello folks,

                  Ok here are some mp3 files of some chants. I did the Heart Sutra (both with and without bell and mokugyo), the Verse of Atonement (both with and without bell), and the Four Vows (both with and without bell). I have also made them available for download if you choose, so you can listen on your iPod of the like.

                  Let me know if you have any questions or any troubles with the files. =)

                              Haha I wonder what people will think if I am chanting in my car in the parking lot with the windows open. Reminds me of that video Jundo posted of Jesus and Buddha on the roller coaster [emoji23]
