    June 13th-14th, 2014 Treeleaf Weekly Zazenkai

    NOTE: GOOGLE HAD SOME TECHNICAL NON-PROBLEM THIS WEEK WITH ITS RECORDING, SO I AM POSTING A RE-SIT OF A PRIOR WEEK TOO. HOWEVER, IT WAS NICE TO SEE A FULL HOUSE THIS WEEK, AND THANK YOU FOR THE LOVELY SIT.THIS SITTING WAS DEDICATED TO TROY'S MOTHER-IN-LAW AND FAMILY, ALL ALL FOLKS IN LIKE CIRCUMSTANCES TODAY.

    Hello All,

    Please 'sit-a-long' with our weekly FRIDAY/SATURDAY 'LIVE FROM TREELEAF' 90 minute ZAZENKAI, netcast LIVE from 9am Japan time Saturday morning (that is New York 8pm, Los Angeles 5pm (Friday night), London 1am and Paris 2am (early Saturday morning)

    ... and to be visible at the following link during those times and sit-a-long-able any time thereafter ...

    LIVE ZAZENKAI NETCAST at GOOGLE+ IS HERE:
    CLICK ON THE TAB ON LOWER RIGHT FOR 'FULL SCREEN





    FOR THOSE NOT ALREADY MEMBERS OF THE CIRCLE WHO WISH TO JOIN TO SIT LIVE WITH A CAMERA, INSTRUCTIONS ARE POSTED AT THIS LINK. WE ARE NOW LIMITED TO 10 INDIVIDUALS WITH CAMERAS, BUT ANY NUMBER CAN WATCH LIVE 'ONE WAY' AND SIT-A-LONG VIA THE ABOVE SCREEN. IF JOINING WITH CAMERA, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR MICROPHONE IS MUTED:

    As you can see, our Zazenkai consists of chanting the 'Heart Sutra' in English (the words are at the link below), some full floor prostrations in sets of three (please follow along with me ... or a simple Gassho can be substituted if you wish), followed by our Dedication, Zazen twice for about 30 minutes each, with 10 minutes of Kinhin in between, and we end the sitting with 'The Verse of Atonement' and 'The Four Vows'.

    Hi guys.

    Sorry I had to shut down my computer but the storm was hardcore. When that happens we'd better unplug everything to prevent a bolt from Thor hitting the house and fry everything.

    I'll sit zazenkai tomorrow morning.
