From el casa de padre |
The first furniture I brought to the house was a zafu & zabuton. (The second, not pictured, is a kneeling bench.)
I've been moving things from the old house to the new one all week with considerable help from family, and expect professional movers to play a significant role in things tomorrow.
Then comes the weekend Zen workshop & sesshin, followed by two more days off from work to settle in.
Although I am planning for practice space in the house, I hope I'll cultivate a habit of practice with local sangha and more/longer practice opportunities such as sesshin.
I suspect that neither daily nor intensive practice alone lead to the results of both daily and intensive practice. Same for solo & group.
I sometimes think about going to a Buddhist center for meditation (there being several here in Eugene, Oregon), but I always wonder if I would have to sit on the floor. I have bum knees, and there ain't no way I could sit on the floor. Maybe I'll look into it someday.
