Ah, thank you!. I can almost identify the spot you painted from in my mind's recollection of that beautiful forked canyon and the chanting and the silence oh, such gifts.Martha Murchison is a neighbor and sent this photo of your painting on to me!

It is so awesome and pleasing to look at the sangha community in that picture. They are living in pleasant joys amongst themselves like father (abbot) loving their child and children feel for their father. The child will become father one day and the child has no desire and competition to achieving this noble status, unlike secularism framework :D May all sangha be wholesomely and be wisdom bliss so that the future is bright not because there are alot of followers, but the followers themselves have benefited from its noble sharing experiences and achieve the status of abbot as that of Buddha. :D May all be well, be safe, be healthy and be radiant :) Monks making offerings to Abbot is a very pleasant and insightful sight.

If you are really determined to tame your mind, he will even give you his heart.” ~ Geshe Rabten about Gyalchen Dorje Shugden Once the mind is tame, there is no different between buddha and yourself. in this world of troubling time due to the precedent on fame, power, egoism and materialism, Sangha plays a vital role to nurture social well beings through its teaching and meditational prayer. For sangha to achieve this noble role, Sangha has to be self exemplified in a well tame mind not involving fame, power in secularism and materialism, even in buddhism pursuit and tradition, purely on vegetarians meal and indulge in the joys of meditational prayers and teachings and most beneficially, in the common interests of all sangha as all beings is Buddha and all tradition is buddhism :D “This manifestation of the Buddha has no equal.
