Deep bows to all!
I managed to sit in live (one way) a few times and will continue to sit with the retreat throughout the week.

What was the Yoda quote? "One does not try, one DOES." Happy days.

Thats right, in our way we sit with all things just as they are - a DOING.
And then we get up and head out into the world - a DOING.
And eventually the energy of Zazen fades and things don't go according to "our plan" (do they ever?) and Mara appears, we DO it all over again. GOTO 10.

Trying - by doing; over and over and over again, unattached to the outcome.

Potato, potahto.

Gassho,

Just finished sitting this. My health meant that I had to skip the first session of each day but otherwise thank you very much for sitting with me.

It was great to have the unsui play such a pivotal role and the theme and talks were great - deep bows to each of you.

Did as much as I could this weekend, and plan to finish up after the holidays.

As always, it was awesome. Thanks, guys.

Kokuu, I am happy to hear you were able to sit with us. I know your health is challenging at time, but I am always moved by your dedication. Deep bows to you. =)

Thank you so much, Jundo and all of you priests, for organising this retreat! Such wonderful work.

I sat the first day last Sunday and the second day today. I must say it was challenging, it was my first ever retreat. There were a few moments when I wanted to get up and run away, I felt so exhausted. But I guess that's part of the whole experience and there was so much stuff I learned.

And thank you to everyone on Google Hangout. I never felt alone seeing all of you there on the screen, that made it so much easier to finish the whole retreat.

Thanks for everything!
