    Our Special Zazenkai & Talk with Abbot Mujo of Antaiji is Here! Please Sit-A-Long!

    THIS IS THE MAIN PAGE FOR THE EVENT


    WELCOME to our special Zazenkai guided by the Abbot Muho Noelke ...

    ... LIVE from Treeleaf Tsukuba and Antaiji!

    The festivities are expected to last about 90 minutes of so, and will begin at 9pm Japan time Sunday (that is New York 7am, Los Angeles 4am, London Noon and Paris 1pm, all Sunday January, 25th). Muho and I apologize that the hour is a bit early for those on the North American West Coast (you will also need to rise before 4am), but I could not ask a man who gets about at 3:30am every morning to lose more sleep. He is already very generous to schedule this in what is really the middle of the night for him!

    The content will consist of one sitting of Zazen (30 minutes), Kinhin (5 or 10 minutes), a Talk by Abbot Muho (25 minutes?). followed by a Q&A.

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT MUHO, ANTAIJI & TODAY's ZAZENKAI can be found HERE (LINK)

    A list of our "two way" live sitters is below. For "one way" sitters, the Zazenkai will be visible on the following screen during the above times and sit-a-long-able any time thereafter ... We are all "not two" way sitters! PLEASE NOTE THAT ONE WAY SITTERS CAN EMAIL ME QUESTIONS FOR MUHO DURING THE LIVE Q&A (jundotreeleaf@gmail.com), AND I WILL TRY TO ASK HIM AS TIME ALLOWS.

    =============================

    SEAT ASSIGNMENTS:

    We have 8 seats in the main Hangout which will be on the Treeleaf Google Plus (LINK). A few people, however, are on STANDBY for that group. The "STANDBY" folks should not try to come UNTIL I ANNOUNCE & REQUEST PEOPLE ON STANDBY IN CASE THERE ARE SEATS REMAINING at netcast start time. After that, IF there are still seats open before Muho's Talk, PRIESTS can come in last during Kinhin when I call for "Priests".

    I WILL OPEN THE HANGOUT, AND TRY TO SEND OUT INVITATIONS ABOUT 15 MINUTES BEFORE THE ZAZENKAI BEGINS (as soon as I make sure Muho has gotten there. We practiced once, so Muho knows what to do).

    The people for this group are:

    Daizan
    Ishin
    Meikyo
    Daitetsu
    Shinzan
    Adrian
    Joyo
    Meredith
    Jundo
    Muho

    Sekishi (Standby)
    Troy (Standby)
    Simon (Standby)


    Priests (on Double-Standby): Shingen, Yugen, Dosho, Shokai, Shugen (first come basis)

    We will also have an experimental second Hangout on our "Jukai 1" page (LINK). What I will do is run that on a second computer, with a separate internet connection and try to position the camera so that it shows the other computer showing Muho (don't try to figure that out, you'll see what I mean). It may not work, and I apologize if not. However, the people in there are Sekishi, Troy, Simon and all Priests (Shingen, Yugen, Dosho, Shokai, Shugen). You may enter at any time, I will try to send invites about 15 minutes before Zazenkai begins.

    QUESTIONS FROM ONE WAY FOLKS DURING Q&A: I will be checking my email during the Q&A portion for questions to Muho from "One Way" folks. If you are a "One Way" participant who is not in a hangout, please email me (jundotreeleaf@gmail.com) any question to Muho, and I will try to read him as many as possible. PLEASE EMAIL ME DURING THE Q&A PORTION, NOT NOW!!

      Uh oh. I've been trying to get in for ten minutes and nothing is working. Don't know if it's operator error or what!

              I got kicked out and tried for quite awhile to get back in, but for some reason I am unable to. So I will finish watching one way.

                            Thank you Jundo, Muho & everyone for this wonderful opportunity!

                            Unfortunately, by the the time I figured out how to join the Hangout, it was full. This gave me the chance to sit with lots of not so compassionate thoughts toward myself!

                            Muho's talk was extremely interesting & it was great to sit with everyone taking part.
