I got to have some nice sitting too, once we got into the afternoon, and there wasn't so much for me to worry about.Shundohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08626305350101368912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2420869610239298943.post-85063024875573298242011-11-20T16:00:20.762-08:002011-11-20T16:00:20.762-08:00I always feel a twinge when I read about your stre...I always feel a twinge when I read about your stresses and preoccupations of planning the sits and schedules, because one of the things I most treasure as a participant is paying no attention to time or schedules for a whole day and resting in the complete trust that everything that needs to happen will happen (which is easy to do at zen center when I have no responsibility for anything). So thanks for creating that environment for the rest of us!<br /><br />The refuges were a beautiful experience. Partly because I know all the words, and I know what they mean, and I deeply know them to be true for me. Partly because of the tone Paul set for the last sitting. Partly because it was my first time saying them at zen center, with the glow from the low-burning candle illuminating so many familiar faces.Kellynoreply@blogger.com
