All Daimoku is stored corrected back to UTC/GMT+0 no matter where you are in Real Time.
Your current location is an offset to this.
This time takes into account any Day Light Saving/Summer Time off sets.
Which means the ceremony in the air, transcends both space and time,
it is just 'now' where ever you are. This is stored in the time server at
Eagle Peak.
You join in with Daimoku with others in a different time zone you would need to chant when they do.
You can see them joining your daimoku.
Equally you can join later and keep the Daimoku going taking over from them during this Tozo/Toso.
We make ever second count so getting the exact time for any time zone is a big deal.

oh and the other hundreds of thousands as asking different questions,
or wanting their living room lights a bit dimmer - we just ask!

Then this comes down to other factors - the speed of light, how fast your phone is, if you are on 4G or 5G and the velocity of propagation.
So this app endeavors to ensure that there is an over lap, somebody somewhere is chanting right now and that server I called Eagle Peak
