    Chant Book is here for those who wish to join in: CHANT BOOK LINK

    The other video I mention on Zendo decorum is this one, from our "Always Beginners" video Series:

    I also recommend a little Talk on why small rituals and procedures are so cherished in the Zendo:

                    Very nice Zazenkai,

                    Sometimes we have to go to that side of life to fully embrace our practice I've found..... and put pain into right action.

                    Of which, I am doing a mental health training in 10 minutes for those struggling

                    Gassho,

                    Ippo

                    Everyday is a good day!
