    Oryoki and Eating Just the Right Amount

    I found this article quite interesting. I don’t participate in Oryoki but I thought those of you who do might appreciate this.

    Cool - is there anywhere recommended that one can order an Oryoki set from?

    Edit: I found www.stillsitting.com, which looks like the best option.

    Sat today.

    We also meet once a month to share an Oryoki meal together.

    Lovely article Tairin, thank you so much for sharing this. Genjun that Oryoki set looks to be pretty good value, but don't underestimate the idea of putting your own set together ; I personally found that really rewarding as a practice in itself. And yes, please do feel free to join our monthly meetings, another unique online opportunity from Treeleaf

    Know that most of sets sold in the West are not really orthodox Oryoki sets, but are very abbreviated and modified in significant ways. So, really might as well make one's own for home Practice purposes.

    Orthodox Soto Set (including large Buddha Bowl without flat bottom, resting on a stand) ...







    Typical set as sold in West ...
