I was invited to wedding of Mariko and Zuiho at Dai Bosatsu Zendo. The wedding ceremony was only two days before Anniversary Sesshin. The trip to the top of mountain was very relaxed and slow. Travelling with Zuiho’s aunts from Rochester itself was fun and very comfortable.

I was very much looking to twelve days out of the noisy city, away from telephone and computer and enjoying this pristine and magic place, ceremony and sesshin.

The top of mountain greeted me with cool breeze, much needed relief after recent heat wave and oven-like apartment where I had to work every day.

To be continued.
