Hi all,

I'm not really sure why we could not live-stream last Friday. I've re-synced the zoom and youtube accounts, so hopefully it will work. But if not, Jundo or I will post a recording after the Zazenkai.

See you all soon!

It looks like it worked this week! Anyone who wants to join one-way via youtube, the embedded video at the top of the thread should work at the top of the hour.

[Ryusoku]

Wonderful words this morning Jundo - Daruma-licious!

That poignant pause following 'no life, no death' (paraphrase) kicked me over the edge of the cliff of conceptions, free-falling headlong into the inky black maze of mind/no mind/don't mind.

The depth of stillness was 'fathomless' yet contained within a pin-prick! Marvellous!


Gassho,
Brett.
