<p>We are immensely grateful to Teah Strozer for finding the han for us and to Maria Wallace for schlepping it across the country in her luggage. This is not a light chunk of wood!</p>
<p>After Teah finished writing the words onto the face,  the han was hung from the pillar next to the densho bell – a seemingly appropriate act on the final night before she returns to San Francisco. Once again in our midst it reminds us both to be in the zendo by the second roll down and not to waste this life!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Several sangha members have asked about aspects of Brooklyn Zen Center governance and if we might be able to post a web page with this information so members can understand where to take questions and concerns. In response to this we now have a <a href="http://brooklynzen.org/bzc/about/bzc-governance/">BZC governance page</a> that lists our board members and various committees. The page is very simple, currently only listing board members, committees, and a link to our mission and vision. We hope that there is enough information in the current version so that Brooklyn Zen Center members have some  idea who to contact regarding any issues they would like to discuss. A link to this page is listed on the right side column throughout our site. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have regarding Brooklyn Zen Center. To the sangha members who made this suggestion, thank you!</p>

Due to a change in circumstances, the group is currently taking a break from sitting together as they look for a new meeting space and time. Updates will come with changes to their status.</p>
<p>The Northern Manhattan Sangha was formed to support those in upper Manhattan who wish to practice in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki Roshi and attend events and retreats with visiting BZC teachers, but live too far to come on a daily basis to Brooklyn. If you are interested in joining this vibrant community for regular sitting, please contact Paul Brantley by emailing <em>pbrantley (at) mac (dot) com. </em></p>

The amount of work the JMP participants put into playing together since last summer was stunningly clear last Friday night. The entire line up of standards were gorgeously played. The elegance and attention throughout the two-person improvisations still linger in the memory and the heart-thumping blast out of the final Coltrane piece was a thrilling finale to a successful year of playing.</p>
<p>A deep bow to the students who navigated many challenges and very busy school schedules to keep their commitments to one another and accomplish a remarkable group and performance. A deep bow to jazz bassist, composer, educator and sangha member, Adam Bernstein, for his unwavering effort and commitment to JMP students and to bringing mindfulness and meditation to the world through music. Bravo!</p>
<p>We are all looking forward to next year!</p>
