    Nov. 11-12th Treeleaf Weekly Zazenkai - Remember DAYLIGHT SAVINGS Changes!


    ATTENTION: DAYLIGHT SAVING CHANGED! BE SURE TO CHECK NEW START TIMES!

    Dear All,

    Please sit our Treeleaf Zazenkai for 90 minutes with Zazen, Heart Sutra and more:

    10am Japan Saturday morning, NY 8pm, LA 5pm Friday night, London 1am and Paris 2am Saturday morning, or any time thereafter here:


    However, "one way" live sitters are encouraged to come into the Zoom sitting, and just leave the camera and microphone turned off: Join live (with or without a camera & microphone) on Zoom at: TREELEAF Now OR at DIRECT ZOOM LINK, password (if needed): dogen

    00:00 – 00:15 CEREMONY (HEART SUTRA in English) and Dedication
    00:15 – 00:45 ZAZEN
    00:45 – 00:55 KINHIN
    00:55 – 01:25 ZAZEN
    01:25 – 01:30 VERSE OF ATONEMENT & FOUR VOWS
    01:30 - 01:45(?) Informal Tea Time (All Welcome)

    ATTENTION: Everyone, when rising for Kinhin or Ceremonies after Zazen, get up slowly, don't rush, hold something stable, you won't be "late," so TAKE YOUR TIME! Make sure you are careful getting up!

    Gassho, Jundo

    PS - There is no "wrong" or "right" in Zazen ... yet here is a little explanation of the "right" times to Bow (A Koan) ...


    Chant Book is here for those who wish to join in: CHANT BOOK LINK

    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:

    I was looking forward to this tonight, but I was asked to attend an old friends wedding. I thought I would be back in time, but with the time change may not be able to do so. If I do, I will join late, if not I will be with you all On Demand tomorrow.

    With Joined Palms,

    Thank you Jundo, all, lovely time as always

    (PS: Jundo, might wanna rethink Dōg-coin... bit too close to Doge methinks... but like the idea!)

    Yes, that was the joke. I can make tech jokes too!

    Nice Inoing today, Kou.

    Thank you everyone!
    Gassho,
    Kotei sat (with this) today.

    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!

    One of my instructors in the beginning of this semester (I study economics) said that if we were all to go to heaven or achieve nirvana like, there would be no economy. In heaven every need would be satisfied, and in nirvana there would be no need at all (he just wanted to point out that demand and supply are in the core of modern economics). I wonder what would he say if I mentioned zen-conomics
