Several things to note
Lay precepts: Because precepts must be given and received face to face, it's unlikely that we'll be able to carry out jukai preparations and ceremonies for quite some time. If you're eager to go forward with taking precepts in the US, we suggest contacting either Shodo or Shoryu in our network and seeing whether they'd be willing to do the preparation and ceremony with you. They don't have the same building constraints that we do and it might be possible much more quickly. If you're outside the US, you may wish to contact the network member closest to you there to see whether he or she is able to give precepts at this time. In-person events calendar suspended: We're not taking reservations for future in-person practice events until it becomes clear when those activities can resume, and it will likely be some time. Our building has narrow hallways and small spaces, making social distancing difficult or impossible. The priority of our board of directors during this time remains the safety and wellbeing of the Okumuras, the staff, and the sangha. Administrative delays: In general our administrative operations have slowed greatly because we don't have an administrative assistant at the moment and those who are filling in are working remotely as their lives permit. Thank you for your patience as we do the best we can to meet needs. |
