Re: JUKAI RETREAT QUESTIONS
Thanks Jundo for your comprehensive blogcast.
All sounds logical & doable - have a spare bedroom etc. Weekends would be my preference - Friday evening to Sunday evening.
I assume this would be sometime in the autumn? Have you been working out a schedule & if so do you have some days in mind? If so, I can pencil this in early enough & I can plan my (and my families) around this. Forgive me for asking, but deadlines, timescales etc are my lot in the outside world.
Kindest regards

Have not set a date yet for the Retreat, or a date for the Jukai. I will try to set a date for one or both soon.

Re: JUKAI RETREAT QUESTIONS
Thanks for today's talk on the retreat, Jundo. I'll also have to wait on the dates to see if I can do the online retreat, but I'll do my best.
Re: JUKAI RETREAT QUESTIONS
Sounds doable. I'll definitely try to sit it, but depending upon the date may not be able to sit live. I'll be attenidng a good deal of fencing competitions this fall and may have a conflict. Overall, it might be easier for me to just schedule some time away from the house to do the retreat either at a Zen Center or holed up in a hotel room with my labtop . . . no distractions that way.
We'll all have to play it by ear I suppose.
Re: JUKAI RETREAT QUESTIONS
ill have a watch tomorrow morning before i start work (@ work) but for me if i can sit whenever over a weekend im good too go. I can get the time from work but do not have the means to do this with out work (my only access to a usable internet connection and my web cam etc etc.) No matter if i have to sit with a recording thats all good too no difference.

Re: JUKAI RETREAT QUESTIONS
Thank you for today's sitting and the info about the silent retreat. Like a couple of the others I'd say doing it over a weekend would be best for me since my wife can watch our son, but I will do what I can to participate live no matter when it's scheduled. Although, as you've told me before, "here" or "there" and "now" or "then" are really all in my head anyway. ;)
