I am a novice priest-in-training. Anything that I say must not be considered as teaching
and should be taken with a 'grain of salt'.
Managed to get back in time for a 20 minute sit, thanks to Kotei and over to Kokuu. Probably my last zazen-a-thon sit but I'll continue to sit for Jundo all the time he is in hospital and having treatment. Thank you to this community for the opportunity to do this beautiful thing.

What do folks think, do you want to add another day or two to the spreadsheet and keep this up, or simply continue to post our sits here in the thread?

Oh I love Zazen-A-Thons! We had a real hard time stopping after the 10-day one we did! I think it's completed though. It was awesome! Now we let it go -- poof! Or not. I defer to the group consensus if people want to extend.
I do like the idea of having this thread for posting our dedications and sittings. Jundo's recovery will take a while!
It's just so lovely to come together like this, truly as one body and mind. It means a lot to me, and I feel so tender and grateful for us all, and that includes those who could not join in this time for whatever reason... they were here too. In addition to showing our love and support for Jundo, the sit-a-thon lets us see all those little spaces in life where we really can make time for practice if we try. I feel like that's all Jundo wants for us.
Zazen-A-Thon 2017! Woot! We rocked tha zendo! You guys decide if it's over or not. It's never over! All of life is our temple.

Yowser !!!
Heck though I might struggle after all the Rohatsu sits and all but shoot go for it. Why not keep going until Jundo gets discharged ?
Will have to adjust my running schedule, as the knees are starting to complain, plus my guitars are getting dusty and my nails are growing!
Regardless of an official Jundoathon continuance, I'll be sitting for him all the same and all others suffering from ill health - have a vested interest with my poorly wife who gets my metta daily.
Yes like Brexit goes on and on, let us sit and be counted.
Might have sat today ......... all a blur now. Anyway how can we say sat or going to sit, should it not always be sitting. Right here right now, one bright pearl ?
