Setup for Online Service
My setup for practicing online, my computer atop a cabinet in which I keep sutra books and supplies, the service book spread across the laptop keyboard and all beneath my altar.

For Sunday this week I attended the online service at Myoshoji Temple in Charlotte, North Carolina. There were eight participants online and another person at the temple, making it the largest gathering since I started attending.

Following the service, Rev. Ryusho Jeffus gave a dharma talk that responded to a post I made on the Nichiren Shu Yahoo Group. I’ve posted my original post and the one response it generated in my blog here. The talk was followed by a nice discussion of chanting.

It is truly great to be able to attend these online services and thus enlarge my sangha beyond my local temples.
