    This is my attempt at a first attempt at a makeshift altar for my meditation space, after reading Susan Pliver's 'Start Here Now' (which is not in the Zen tradition). My apologies for my photo not being as well done as I feel the rest of the photos in this thread are. This is from just before I joined Treeleaf Zendo. It remains the same, except now my meditation cushions are across the room so I can face the wall when I sit Zazen. The pictures of flowers are for beauty and impermanence, the electric tealight is because my host where I live is afraid of fire and has asked me not to light things.. I was going to put pictures of the buddha and Quan Yin? (sp?) and others in the frames but when I propped it up against the object it seemed perfect the way it was. The objects are trinkets that are special to me. Not pictured but nearby in a aromatherapy misting diffuser that I use instead of incense, for the same reason I was using the electric tealight. Currently I am enjoying the scent of Orange, or was.

    Looking at the photo, I'm not sure what to do with how busy it seems, because there are 4 of us living in this house, 5 when my niece is home from college, and I moved here from a one bedroom apartment (You can see one of the spaces for my books under the table that I am using for the altar), so I am lucky to have as much space as I do for my things.

    I have now watched the first sit-a-long in the Beginner Talks section. Thank you for pointing me to them, Kotei?, and recording them, Jundo.

    Blessings,
    Theresa

    I think it looks terrific Theresa. Mine is just a tiny section of our bookcase up high surrounded by cooking, animal and other miscellaneous books. Space is hard to find our one room dwelling and 2 of our cats would absolutely demolish an alter any lower haha.

    Nice uke. Interesting headstock. I just bought one a couple of months ago and am trying to learn a few songs. See attached.

    That's a beauty/ Is it a tenor or Baritone. Mine is a 27 inch Fender. That's their signature headstock. Do you play any other instrument. There are a pile of tutorials on youtube. and, I recently bought a Jake Shimabukuro song book from Amazon that gives 10 free lessons by Jake. I found it extremely beneficial in that it introduced me into working up the fret board.

    Thanks, Shokai. It's a concert size uke. I thought that was a Fender headstock. I have been watching YouTube videos too. Doing some blues chord progressions and turnarounds. Not too difficult actually. I also mess around on the guitar too.

    When I got my ukelele my 16 year old granddaughter who sings and plays piano said, hey let me try it. But she's left handed. So I said, your left handed, it's going to be backwards. Upside down. You can't....And she says yeah just let me see it. And then starts playing left handed, playing chords on it like no problem. I was quite impressed. So I told her buy a lefty and see how much easier it is. And she did. And it is.

    I don’t know if this is a place in which I might apologize to all the Sangha for my atrocious behavior on the presentation yesterday from the Abbott of an Oregon Zen Center, the Roshi who will ordain Dyo and I so spoiled the wonderful talk about women in and out of Zen and Buddhism. My complete misunderstanding for I am 68 and she is 74, and I know Dyo also lived through these times when many women were treated poorly. And the Abbot was there for many in San Francisco in early days. This picture is fo The Abbot, Dyo, and especially for our new Sangha member.
