A year after sending my letter to my teacher he replied to me that he’s going to give me shukke tokudo. I’m very grateful and happy! This week I started with sewing the kesa, the monk robes. I’ve to finish it before the ceremonial takes place. I don’t have a date for this ceremony yet..
I take private dancing lessons in argentine tango. It’s just me and my teacher now. I would love to find a dance partner to take lessons with and go to “milongas” together!
Gampo Abbey in Nova Scotia, Canada is a nice example of a zen monastery I would like to stay for a while (2, 3 months). This is the monastery led by Pema Chodron.
