The Ino’s Blog: Darlene

I was lighting the altar in the zendo this morning when Jordan came in; this was notable since he is the doshi doing the morning jundo now that Paul is at Tassajara. He came over to tell me that Darlene had died at 1:15 this morning.

I didn’t get back to my seat, but went to set up for the 108 bells, which we did after the jundo. Almost everyone from the zendo came out to offer incense, bow and strike the densho in her memory.
