Hello, Bodhisattvas!

This Sunday, 15 August 2021, there will be another special guided Tonglen Practice Circle for anyone who wishes to do taking and sending practice for themselves and everyone affected by current world situations (coronavirus, natural events, political unrest to name just three) and the fear and anxiety that can go with them.

This event will occur in the Scheduled Sitting Room (SSR) at 8pm UK time (UST/GMT) and last for around 35 minutes.

We hope to see you all there!

Deep bows,

Kokuu & Washin

I have a nonmalignant brain tumor. It will grow if not removed. These are hereditary in our families. White Northern European more prone. 65% chance for recovery AS arthritis of spine and bipolar and tumor mean long recovery. If I die I have done more good than bad. This’ll help me feel better and understanding my life was not.a waste. I will sit Zazen now

There are no mistakes in the universe, yet sometimes the body makes them.

I am confident that your excellent doctors will be skillful in correcting the body's mistake.

Sitting with you, TS.

My doctor, Dr Kim, says it takes time to assemble 6 specialists for this surgery and they must make a plan. The tumor has already impaired my thinking but I now know why I had to stop work on the book two months ago. And why it takes me several hours to type a message or page. All my best and I have lots of good.

The surgical team includes 6 specialists, all of us, Buddha (and from your Christian side, Jesus too). [gassholook] It will be crowded in there.

As your wife is going to be busy with other things around surgery time, maybe you can ask your daughter to drop me an email regularly so we can all know how you are healing, TS?
