Yup the problem with being in the moment is other moments keep getting in the way. Seriously though drop in whenever you can make it. If you're a little late cool, just hit the cushion , need to leave early that's fine 2. We'll just be there chillin.

It was fun to drop in and meet everyone last night! As promised, here are a couple of links related to the subject of my undergraduate thesis on Zen, Edward Espe Brown:

This is obviously just the trailer, I haven't watched the full documentary in ages but I'm sure it is still out there.

And this was the main book I wrote about: Tomato Blessings and Radish Teachings

Ironically, he has written a few books since I wrote my paper that would have made gleaning his particular brand of spiritual insight dramatically easier! Also, in searching for videos of the documentary on his life, I discovered that Mr. Brown actually gave a dharma talk at Treeleaf some years ago!

It's a small Zen world, apparently!

Hi everyone

Just here to express my gratitude for this little "moment-to-moment" zazen we are doing. Somehow the time is working for me at the "moment" and I'm loving that we get to know each other a little and have a "mini dharma talk" after zazen. I was thinking that we could start dropping some Koans there too, what you guys think? I'll propose it next zazen.
Take care all and many Gasshos .

Hey guys, hope you all well. Thanks for the Zazen today. I love our sessions ????. Here I'll post the 3 Refugee verses in Pali/Sanskrit as I promised:

Simplified version:

Buddham Saranam Gacchami
Dhammam Saranam Gacchami
Sangham Saranam Gacchami ( 3x repeat)

More traditional version:

3 Refuges in Pali* Buddham Saranam Gacchâmi
Dhammam Saranam Gacchâmi
Sangham Saranam Gacchâmi

Dutiyampi Buddham Saranam Gacchâmi
Dutiyampi Dhammam Saranam Gacchâmi
Dutiyampi Sangham Saranam Gacchâmi
Tatiyampi Buddham Saranam Gacchâmi
Tatiyampi Dhammam Saranam Gacchâmi
Tatiyampi Sangham Saranam Gacchâmi

Translation:


I go to the Buddha for refuge
I go to the Dhamma for refuge
I go to the Sangha for refuge

Dutiyampi = For the second time…
Tatiyampi = For the third time…

I hope we keep singing it ???? ????
