        Hi all,

        Just a quick note, youtube changed something today and I had to post a new video (at the top of the thread).

            Thank you all for another wonderful Zazenkai, fun tea (metta to all those ill and caring for the ill), and that mask Shokai — I need to get one just to have "My eyes are up here" scroll across the mask so the beard poof isn't focused on!

                Thanks everyone!! special mentions to Washin chanting us through at 3AM and Shokai, because Shokai ALWAYS deserves a special mention.

                    Changing out the hut's laptop. What the old Vaio garbled at tea time is basically that all is well in our neck of the woods. Thanks Jundo, Washin ... Sekishi ... and Shokai!

                            It is a bit of a challenge, I’ll admit to that. I do it weekly and right now, cause of the time change it’s at 2 am for me but I find it easier in summer when it’s at 3am [emoji1] Strange

                              Hey Bion!
                              Do you stay up until the end of the zazenkai, or do sleep for some hours before the beginning of the zazenkai?
