and something to keep my body clean for example soap and so on.
If you support me,please donate.

Hi All,
I told Kakunen he can post here. He is in training as a novice Priest at Myotokuji temple in Japan. As most of you know, he is a regular poster and online sitter with us here at Treeleaf too.
He gets no or very little financial support, and has had a medical emergency requiring him to be looked at in hospital and buy some medications, plus he has his daily living expenses while at the monastery. It is traditional for lay persons to support Buddhist priests in Training, an act with much Karmic Merit, so now is your chance!
His paypal address is: monk.kakunen@gmail.com
I just saw him during a visit to Tsukuba a few days ago, and he looks like he has been training hard.
If you would like to help out, there is his paypal account. He and I offer you a heartfelt bow.
From the Dana (Generosity) Sutta:
There is the case of a person who gives a gift not seeking his own profit, not with a mind attached [to the reward], not seeking to store up for himself, nor [with the thought], 'I'll enjoy this after death.' Instead, he gives a gift with the thought, 'Giving is good.' He gives his gift — food, drink, clothing, a vehicle; a garland, perfume, & ointment; bedding, shelter, & a lamp — to a brahman or a contemplative. What do you think, Sariputta? Might a person give such a gift as this?"
"Yes, lord."

Hi Sangha
Today is Sesshin day.
But I take a rest,because of my body conditions.
I talk with Muho today.
I leave Antaiji for 2 and half years ago.
I am very grad to talk with him.
I don’t know reason why I can’t stop crying.
I can remember hard days at Antaiji.
Gassho
Not sit today,because too tired.I sleep almost 3 days.

人生には色々なことがあります。私は訳があり、父と母とは20年前に絶縁しました。その後会ったことのなか った姉や若い兄弟に会いました。若い彼らは死んでいました。いまもどこにいるのか?私の心にしかいません。 妻と息子や親戚とたまにしか会わず修行するのは、誰かに何かを求めるのではなく、ただ受け入れるためです。 受け入れることからしか、幸せは訪れません。これが私の意見です。合掌

I can't use paypal in my country, but I will figure out a way to send you a donation soon. Does Alipay work in Japan?

Okay, please let me know if it's possible. If Alipay doesn't work, I can transfer some money to a family member in the UK and they can send to your paypal (this may take about two weeks.)
Hope your health improves and your practice is peaceful.

Hi,
No problem. I will figure something out. I read that Paypal was blocked in China, but it seems to work. I'll see if I can set up an account as a non-Chinese in China (sometimes the bureaucracy makes it dificult to transfer money out of the country.) If it doesn't work, I will give some money to a Chinese person and have them transfer to you.
Hope your practice is going well.
