Generosity. This community has demonstrated that virtue. Every visiting teacher that has come has made that remark. It is one of the most beautiful aspects of this community. We rely totally on donations. |
I'd rather we stay a community. That's what we see now, is the sustained commitment to spiritual practice from which all of our actions begin. That's harder than growing. |
It was all grassroots, people's piggy banks and everything else. |
It will be a hut for healing, for solitary reflection. It's very sculptural. We love the starkness of it. |
It's at least 15 years. It takes that long. |
Maybe the dharma will deepen in me. I feel like I'm having a brand new beginning. It's a nice celebration. |
We have many of the same people who have continued over the entire 10 years. I find that extraordinary. |
We try to keep that perspective in mind. |
