Thank you all who sat and will sit.

Thanks everyone,

On the theme of dancing, this Zazenkai reminded me of my favourite youtube clip by Alan Watts / South Park.
It's part of a short series, all available on youtube. Apologies if this has been posted already...

Enjaku, thanks for sharing the video. I hadn't seen it before.

Jundo, did they give you all the outfit to wear too? It looks good how it flares out. I liked watching the footwork too--it looks tricky so it's impressive to hear you could all pick it up so fast.

Gassho,

Sat On Demand over the last couple of days. Just when I question what I'm doing here Jundo does something like this and I'm enlightened. Mad as a box of frogs . What would old Dogen think of all this i often wonder . Joined in the dancing as best I could, old man dad style boggie - your visitors looked so perplexed. I hope they come back.

Now if I could just find a hard rock version ......................

Many thanks and Gassho to all.

Jundo thanks for looking but man that's extreme even for me, I'm more the blues rock / classic rock / 80s metal kinda 60 year old. Now this does give me some inspiration, as my guitar playing and learning has been in the doldrums since early December, when I crushed the tip of my left index finger, while working on would you believe an outdoor Zen Garden / Zazen area. Bit of karmic comeback maybe. But think I've an idea for a new project.

Oh, then take you pick (beyond all preferences, of course!). There are very many, most featuring the Japanese Vocaloid Hatsune Miku ... some others too ...

The Amida Studios rap is great, Buddha meets Eminem.
