This session I will encourage that everyone read the following resource that Jundo sent to me:
https://www.sotozen.com/eng/practice/sutra/shakyo.html
I recommend returning to this document a few times and to incorporate it as you see beneficial. It doesn't need to be followed to the letter. For example, it advises that we make note of mistakes and correct them, but since we do not all fully understand the letters, we don't necessarily know our mistakes, either! As long as we respectfully do our best, there is no problem. Just keep going.
We will be making sure to bow, before and after the practice.
Remember, everyone, to watch your posture and your breathing as you practice!
