Somehow I missed this one. I'll sit it tonight, 9pm EST to 10:30pm EST if anyone would care to join for all or part. (I will put it on the scheduler)

Just a quick question on the tempo. I noticed that all chanting and verses were much slower than we usually do them. Any particular reason?

I was sad.

No buses, but we did get hit by a big snow storm! My Zazenkai consisted of chanting, shoveling snow, zazen, shoveling more snow, kinhin zazen and closing. Normally this is not the case and i can do it without interruption but its nice to have the on demand version when things don't go as planned!

Thank you Jundo Sensei. I was hoping to see a team up Taigu Sensei on this one but with 2 jobs he must not have been available

Thanks to all fellow sitters past, present, and future.

Now off to finish up that shoveling :shock:

Though summer is not quite here in the South, I sat with you all through one of our first pop-up thunderstorms. Thank you for your sterling leadership, Jundo.

Just sat this very poignant Zazenkai from my little cell at my Abbey where I am spending a week.

I just did Zazenkai and it was beautiful.

I found specially powerful to listen to the Shariraimon.

May all suffering beings find peace and may we help the ones we can to attain it.

Jundo, I hope this all crisis stops soon and you and your family can get back home.

Thank you.

Hi Jundo and all who sat,
just finished sitting with you, that was a very moving zazenkai. It is also a beautiful sunny day here

Sorry Dosho had to duck out unexpectedly, was nice to see you in the hall if even briefly, I will be re-sitting again tommorow after leaving early tonight. Thank you to all, and to Jundo for this sit.

Re: March 19, 2011 - Special Zazenkai for the Japan Earthquake

Hi Jundo,

I'll be there! Will the time be the same (Saturday 9am Japan time)? We just switched to daylight savings here in the States, so I believe the times would now be 8pm New York (6pm Grand Junction/Santa Fe) and 5pm Los Angeles (Friday night). I'm not sure about the times for Europe though, if anyone can help there....or if I got my times wrong here too. Math is not my strongest subject.

Gassho,
Dosho

Thank you. I will fix that.


Gassho, Jundo
