notice: no artifice, nothing to see here

 meetingbrook has gone

idiorhythmic — each is

on their own unique

schedule — there is no practice

but haphazard quiet joy

as summer packs to leave, late august 2022

There are no events

only one continuous 

unveiling instant

Right there, where you are

bow reverently, stay home

your own holy place

Events spring 2022

 Spring arrives in three and a half hours. It will ask what we are doing.

Our gate, though broken, reaches across driveway with green mesh fence and red reflectors with looping dock line steadying ragtag cloister for dog from Barnestown cars and trucks.

Birds at feeder know dregs of fifty pound bag will give until no more.

We zoom on Tuesday evening, Friday evening, and Sunday evening. Drop an email if you’d like the link.

The hermitage remains cloistered. 

My your events provide quiet joy and inner peace!

Winter 2022: and so it is new year’s

 We continue zoom practice conversations on Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday evenings.

Coffee or tea in the morning, well-water at night.

Moments of meditation, zazen, contemplative sauntering, soul-friend conversation.

If you’d like, try it at home.

Like the final line of an old poem on cedar shake:

I am

Waiting for

You

To answer

Me

 And so, it is New Year’s Day.

Let us know, by whispers in the still-dark of intimate dawns, the events of your life, the thinks in your many lives that draw you closer to yourself, that call to oneself, saying “I am here!”
