The other video I mention on Zendo decorum is this one, from our "Always Beginners" video Series:

I also recommend a little Talk on why small rituals and procedures are so cherished in the Zendo:

Thank you all. Jundo, that second dose was a doozy, huh? I think I felt much the same as you did. So happy that it wasn't worse for you or Leon, and so grateful that you were both able to come and get vaccinated, and see all the awesome things you are seeing. Safe travels until you are home.

Great to join this Zazenkai.

The beauty of recording them is that we can always get a second shot at attending them!

For those who attended tea after Zazenkai, James expressed concern about a possible Covid exposure. He said I could report that, fortunately, it turned out to be a false alarm this time, and all his family members are well. :encouragement:
