Winter 2023 Newsletter: Winter Sesshin
Seventeen people participated in the Winter Sesshin in December, including five students doing sesshin for the first time and Ada Chan, Christine Cordero, and Raul Betancourt who flew in from Oakland, California. Eric Birkeland served as the jikijitsu for both the dai sesshin and the short sesshin preceding the full one in November, wrapping up his fifteen months of intensive live-in training. Cristina Moon was the tenzo, assisted by Carl He and Katy Luo as handaikan.
