    More missile strikes yesterday, deaths of civilians in Kviv, and a strike in Odessa which could not be intercepted and hit, sadly, a Russian Orthodox monastery ... other attacks this week as well ... tragic ...

    The Russian Sukhoy Su-35 fighter jets launched missiles from the Black Sea towards Odesa City, Odesa Raion Military Administration reported. "Thanks to the efficient work of the air defense forces, a portion of the missiles were destroyed, but there were hits that resulted in partial damage to a civilian house. There are injuries; preliminarily, no...

      i am confused again.. Meian says: 3 pm Paris time, but the calendar says 2 pm CET.. AND the calendar says, that it corrects for daylightsaving time, but the time her in Belgium (CET, but the same as Paris) changed last night.

      OK , i will be there at 2 pm, if nobody shows up i give it another try at 3 pm.

      Of course, it is the Bodhisattva of Changing Times that induces this confusion: to teach us that you only can live with: i do not know

        I am not sure the time, but the confusion is caused as time has changed in North America for daylight savings, not yet in Europe.

        Fortunately, as a Zen fellow, we are not bound by time and space at all!

          Fairly certain we’re back to 3 PM, since we caught up to the US [emoji3526]

              I am confused, too.
              Europe changed to DST yesterday night.

              I am not 100% sure, but I believe the calendar entry needs to be adjusted.

              Meian says 3pm Paris time and Washin posted on FB that we are back at the normal time (which is 3pm, too).
              The Sunday sit is now anchored in Kyiv timezone and not based on an US timezone any more.
              Maybe that confused the calendar?

              Again, I am not 100% sure, but will be there at 3pm CET.

              Gassho,
              Kotei sat/lah today.

                    absolutely true, but sometimes a relative moment helps..

                      The beauty of recordings. [emoji120]

                      A side effect of running a truly global (universe-al?) sangha is that sometimes we enter a time warp, and things go wibbly wobbly with clocks and other time machines. [emoji851]

                      Apologies for the 'old' Doctor Who references, but sometimes "it do be like that", as my daughter would say. [emoji106]
