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

    I lost a dear friend and mentor today, one of the pioneers and shining stars of Veterinary Medicine. A lot of us will be broken hearted for awhile at his loss. If anyone is so inclined, please sit for his family tonight. I can’t join you as unfortunately I have to be up early tomorrow, but the work I do will be in his honor, even more than usual.

    Sorry for your loss Jakuden. I just now saw this but will sit in his honor during my evening meditation. As a person with a deep connection to his fur babies (one with a chronic medical condition), I have a special appreciation for those in that profession.

    Metta to you and all affected by the loss.

    Being a novice priest doesn't mean my writing about the Dharma is more substantial than yours. Actually, it might well be the other way round.

    Thank you everyone, these recordings are a lifesaver with such an erratic schedule. Simple, and effective, thank you Jundo, and everyone else who helped make this what it is. Jakuden, metta to you and all those affected by the loss of your friend and mentor, a lovely sit to dedicate.
