Hi Everyone,
Last Friday we picked up our Building Consent for the alterations at 52 Princes St, and we are expecting the contractor to start work next Monday.
As a way of acknowledging the past and present life of the land upon which our new zendo sits, there will be a dawn blessing of the site this Sunday at 7:00 a.m. sharp, conducted by Ngati Whatua kaumatua Jerry Norman. Breakfast will be served after the ceremony. Everyone is warmly invited.
The ceremony will form part of our one-day sitting, which will start as usual at 6:00 a.m. For information about the one-day sitting see
here. There is a sign-up sheet at the zendo or email us at
in...@aucklandzen.org.nz.
People are welcome to attend just the blessing and breakfast, or join the sittings before or after as well.
Sensei
