We continue our series of Sine leading us in a study of Okay, Gary Larson's book, You Have to Say Something, which probably is my favorite book, so I'm looking forward to it.
Thank you for joining us today and continuing our exploration of this book.
I'd like to remind those of you in the Zen Do to speak up when we come to the discussion part, just to make sure that those of us out in the cloud can hear you.
And then for anyone who may not have participated in one of our Dharma Jams before us, The way that this differs from traditional Dharma talk is that it is a facilitated discussion amongst the Sangha, so we can benefit from everyone's wisdom and everyone's perspective on the Dharma, rather than just having me sit up here and tell you what I think.
All right, let's continue with this chapter, which is called Holding Fast and Letting Go.
