The following video was recorded specifically for the Francophone Sangha practitioners with Myosho-ji. The genesis of the topic was a letter by a few folks asking about the Jukai ceremony done in December of 2018 in Paris. Because the question involved more than the few individuals with whom the question originated, rather the entire Sangha I chose to answer in public to the entire Sangha. For reasons not communicated to me, most of the individuals who asked the question did not participate. The video is rather disjointed due to a number of factors. At one point I was trying to provide instruction to one of the participants on how they could share their screen so that they could use Google translate in French and I could read their message in English. That didn't work out, so we had to switch gears. As I made note at the end the video is rough and down and dirty. It was discussed as to whether or not I should even post it, in the end those who chose to participate decided that it should be posted. So here it is.
