Good afternoon dear friends –
This Thursday, March 26, will be our first Sangha gathering using Zoom. So grateful to Rebecca for setting this up. Please see our previous blogpost for information on how to join.
It’s wonderful that we have our practice as a support for any new venture…. Please be patient with whatever happens! Breathing in and out will get us through.
We will join on Zoom silently. We will have a single sit and walk. Then we will practice the Ceremony to Support the Sick. There will be a 10 minute break (while you get tea). Then we should have good time for Dharma sharing before we offer the merits of our practice.
We will have a single Chant Master since Zoom allows only one person to speak/chant at a time.. Please remember to maintain MUTE until our Dharma sharing! And feel wonderfully free to join in the chanting knowing we are chanting together.
You can find all the materials you need to participate at

This site includes a .pdf document of the text for the Ceremony. It also includes mp3s of all the chants that we will be offering during the Ceremony.
Next Thursday, April 2, we will have the Ceremony to Recite the Five Mindfulness Trainings. All the materials can be found at
It contains a .pdf document of the text for the Ceremony. It also includes mp3s of all the chants that we will be offering during the Ceremony. This means you have more than two weeks to practice those chants! What a wonderful way to spend time during our social isolation….
May all beings be well.
