    February 9-10th Treeleaf Weekly Zazenkai - When Friends Disappoint ...

    Dear All,

    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

    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! [/CENTER]

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

    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:

    Dear Treeleaf Sangha,
    I wholeheartedly feel empathy and sympathy for such a beleaguering experience. Please accept my gratitude for your offering.

    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.

    It's been a long time since I sat Zazenkai. I am not so lucky as to sit Zazenkai for four hours because I have some difficulty; I know the time at the beginning of the month is difficult. I do try to sit every morning usually at 65 with Shokai, and sometimes at 8:00 when I sometimes Host at that time. I can sit Zazenkai, and I will sit time after next time after the four hour, I will try to sit. Thank you Jundo for all you do for us. I will try to sit Zazenkai more often at the shorter ones.
