BTW: My apologies for getting up in the middle of the talk, but I was called away on a mission of compassion and mercy: rescuing my wife from a frightful spider (and releasing said spider outside).

"Renew your vows" is just delightful with double meaning in this case!

Thank you everyone, and thank you Jundo for the helpful explanation of the precepts and how they evolved... Very interesting!

Sadly four hours of Internet time eats all of our satellite data for the month. But I was able to listen to the podcast. Great talk.

... and just sit as we sit, walk Kinhin as we walk, following the schedule as best one can ...

and you are right there with us, sitting all together.

Hi Kyle,

yes, speaking from the middle of nowhere here, where internet is slow and expensive, a good compromise is to watch the beginning and the end of the zazenkai, chanting along and bowing, but turn the live stream (or recording) off during the sitting and kinhin, and just use a timer to time yourself for those portions. Jundo usually stays right on schedule so it works pretty well. Hope that helps!

Excellent. Thank you both for the advice.

Yes, the one thing is that our video of sitting is basically indistinquishable from a still photo of sitting. Perhaps you can print out a screen capture, tape it to you computer screen, and it will look just the same.
