$\"\"$ So far we\u2019ve raised $8343 for the\u00a0Great Tides Zen<\/a> launch.<\/p>\n

We declare this fundraiser a complete, wonderful, 100% success! Pretty darn good, even, for a new little start up.<\/p>\n

Our goal, you may remember, was to raise $10,000 and we raised 83.43% of that. So what\u2019s this about a 100% success?<\/p>\n

For this we rely on Dogen, of course, who declared in his piece on\u00a0Kannon,<\/em> \u201cWhen what should be presented is presented, someone expressing eighty or ninety percent should be regarded as someone who has expressed 100%.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clearly, together we presented what was presented and so we did it \u2013 100%!<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll leave Minnesota soon and will move into our new home in Portland, ME, July 1. The picture, btw, is the view from the Eastern Promenade of Casco Bay in Portland, ME.<\/p>\n

Once we unpack a few boxes, we\u2019ll find a place for daily practice.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re thinking to yourself, \u201cDang, I wish I\u2019d donated before the fundraising was over!\u201d<\/p>\n

No need to beat yourself up about it \u2013 you are welcome to go to PayPal<\/a> (our account is greattideszen@gmail.com) and help support this new training center. Thank you.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
