New Announcements

******** Important Announcement ********

In order to facilitate future activities, the Sanbo-Kyodan Society has decided to take the following measures concerning the form of our publication, Kyôshô, and the way in which the yearly membership fees are collected. We sincerely ask you for your understanding and cooperation.

From No. 322 (January/February 2007) the Kyôshô will be put on the "Members' Forum" (German page: "Forum der Mitglieder") of our homepage (http: //www.sanbo-zen.org), in both the Japanese and the English language sections. Members can enter this Forum using their ID (German page: "Kennziffer") and their password (cf. below). The Forum will be further enlarged through constant addition of translation (English/German) of teishos and other significant matters.
The Japanese part of the Kyôshô will be printed and bound as usual, but, as a general rule, they will be sent only to the members residing in Japan.
Generally, the Kyôshô will not be sent to those members residing outside of Japan. If, however, a member who has no access to the Internet informs the secretariat of this, either the printed version of the English Kyôshô or the booklet of the Japanese Kyôshô will be provided as requested.
To pay the yearly membership fees, use of a credit card will be introduced on our Internet homepage from November 2006 (US $ 50.-; cf. "Membership/Donations Corner" from November 2006). New members who submit the yearly membership fees using a credit card will automatically obtain the ID and the password by which they can enter the "Members' Forum."
Those members who have already paid their membership fees up to 2006 and have their email addresses registered at the secretariat will be informed of their ID and password upon completion of the renewal of the homepage with the above-mentioned payment system. This will enable them to enter the "Members' Forum" mentioned above. Those members who acquire an email address and submit to the secretariat will also be given their ID and password upon request. Furthermore, the donations will also be accepted with this system.
When the fees are paid by the credit card, no formal receipt will be sent to the members, except in the case that such a receipt is requested. The automatic email confirming the payment will take the place of the usual receipt.
Although the above-mentioned credit card system is strongly recommended for the payment of the fees from abroad, it will remain possible to transfer money to the account of German Gemeinschaftsbank (40 Eur from the fiscal year 2007 [April 2007-March 2008], for an indefinite period of time):

　　　　In addition, please note that our CitiBank account in Japan was abolished;
      therefore, it is not possible to send money there any more.



We sincerely ask for your cooperation.
