I arrive early to set up the zendo for 7am sitting this morning. Turn on the heater, set up the altar, light the candle and the incense, lower the lights.


I ring the bell three times.


Ten minutes later another person enters and joins me for meditation.

We sit and then chant and put everything away.

On the way home I notice two blue herons standing on top of the pine trees in the gully by my house.

All is well.
