I'm lucky in Hawaii to be close to a Soto Zen temple, mixed Japanese / American, where I'm the handyman and a regular attendee.  I'm out as a nudist there - when I first started going, I was standing with the minister and a few others when one of the (louder) members came up and greeted me with "OH, IT'S YOU!  I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE YOU WITH YOUR CLOTHES ON!"  I had modelled for an art class she took. This offering bench is the first - and maybe last - woodworking project of this sort I've ever attempted.  It now sits in the Jizo-do outside the temple.

    I am a member of one other online sangha, which has many smaller groups as part of the larger community.  One of these groups is for nude meditators, though I have yet to ascertain how many are nudists, versus how many (just) meditate nude.
