                          @Chap An aspect that I love and appreciate. So many of us get caught up in the wanting the perfect (insert item), that we forget it’s the process of getting there that’s important.

                            We are standing on a so called Nightingale Floor surrounding the temple. These flours make a squeaking sound (chirping noises) when you walk on them. Legend has it that the squeaking floors were used as a security device warning of intruders.

                                  This looks familiar - is it the zen temple within the larger complex? If so, Kira and I did a private meditation / sutra chanting here early one morning earlier this year with the temple master. Was a very cool experience

                                      @Alex Yes it's a in a sub-temple of the complex of Daitoku-ji. I am pretty sure it is the same.
