Thank you, Seiso 🙏 I appreciated the discussion about the term ‘absorption’ and the subtle distinction from ‘concentration’ - that resonated for me. I also appreciate your gentle, authentic, kind guidance and approach. I can feel that you care, and that means the world. Thank you 🙏

Many bows

Thank you so much - I always enjoy your explanations !!

I appreciate the calming and stilling influence of absorption in the sound of the bell. Your talk helped clarify this aspect which I was only partly aware of. Thank you Sensei.
