Summary: while i was on tour recently, i stopped by the grafton peace pagoda, in grafton new york. it's a buddhist shrine out in the middle of the woods. an amazing nun named jun-san lives there. she's walked across the u.s. multiple times chanting for peace. she offered me tea and dinner and a place to sleep having no idea at all who i was. this is a recording of her and the other nun who was staying there, kyoko-san, performing their evening ritual of drumming and chanting.
