The Jade Buddha English group is now planning its activities already for next year, and have asked about something for the group during the first of the year. Also I will work on a book store lecture during your time here in Texas. Do let me know ...
An opportunity to contribute to debate about the shape of things to come.
This group is for "Buddhists of all religions" - Buddhists and Buddhist sympathisers regardlesss of tradition or beliefs - who share a quest for a peaceful world.

History in the very near future
Today is a holiday in America, the celebration of the birthday of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. I tell you, the energy here is amazing, and people everywhere are electrified with happiness and satisfaction. In just one day from now, we will inaugurate a new president, one who is the first African American to be elected to this prestigious office. And the sense in this country is that we are again a leader in the "free world" and there seems to be a resurgence of pride and honor in being an Am… Continue

walter said… - hello,
and thanks for your reply, maybe next time i get to texas we can get together, or you to europe, you never know - i am just looking for a lengthy retreat somewhere, and being with family is a totally different world than what i want, so, i have been invited to amidafrance once again, but since i spent months there in 2008, i am not sure what the point is, you know, dropping everything once again, and just living it with no idea where it leads
the best to you and thanks again
from walter

We're getting ready here on the Big Island for the Brazier's visit in ten days or so. How was your visit with them?
After that, I look forward to getting more involved in this amidatrust.ning virtual adventure.
Where is Richmond? I lived in Austin from 1982-1987. My brother and mother live in Georgetown and my sister is in Katy.
Aloha & Namo Amida Bu,
Franco

- It's a pleasure to hear from you, Amaya. Yes, I'm familiar with Surya Das. My Dzogchen teacher is Namkhai Norbu,who I had the pleasure of finally meeeting in May 2008 in Conway, MA; and my Root Guru is Sogyal Rinpoche.
I've enjoyed your photographs.
I saw beautiful footage of a retired elephant, Tara, choosing a dog, Bella, to be her constant companion. When Bella suffered a spinal injury, Tara morned for her and stayed in a spot that allowed her to be closest to her for three months.
Finally the staff saw it fit to carry the dog out to let them spend time together. Bella finally recovered, and they pal around with great joy.
