Zen is Timeless (but posting isn't)

Coming back from an interlude of activity.  I didn't want to post any more until I finished designing, creating, and testing the "meditation back support device" I've been working on. Wow, that's a mouthful.

Good news.  I finally finished the device and I've been testing it the past few weeks.  It's AMAZING!!!  After I sewed it together and did the first sit I knew I was very close.  I had to tweak a couple of design  features to dial it in...now it totally exceeds my expectations.

Meditation Back Support Device

The thumbnail shows what it looks like.  I'm currently by myself in the mountains so I can't take a picture of it in use. When I get home I'll post an update with "action" shots of me sitting with the "meditation back support device."

I think that this could be a huge help to anyone who practices zazen and has back problems.  I'm considering having them made and selling them with the proceeds going to my local sangha.  We'll see.  If I do then I think we should have a naming contest and the winner gets a free "meditation back support device"...zenza?

This week I will post a couple of additions to the book review section. So if you are looking for a good Zen read you might check that out.
