Some years ago, a London filmmaker/graphics designer extraordinaire, Jayoon Choi, of times 3 London, made a short documentary-treatment of the practicing life in our Zen Center. As part of it, she set up a GoPro camera on the altar to film a time-lapse of the morning practice. I left an intimate Zen-moment for her (and her alone) to discover during the editing process when I went to the altar to put out the candles after chanting.
Imagine the surprise to discover this Tibetan guy copying it. Well, a few years earlier. But I didn’t know that yet, at the time.
Now that we’ve mentioned it, here is Jayoon’s beautiful videoette:
