After a few months of sporadic posting, I just learned that my new friend Gail has joined the group. This inspires me to pay a bit more attention to our work...
Here's a link <http://adreampuppet.blogspot.com/2005/01/ancient-wisdom-in-internet-age.html> from my blog to Ted Wrigley's translation of this classic example...
There's an interesting discussion going on over at my blog, Spontaneous Arising, about Buddhism and whether or not is an elite practice unavailable to most...
Hello all! I am a student, I live in Canada and I have been at meditation and Buddhism for about 6 years now. I have recently began working with a counselor in...
Hello Eric and all group members, I noticed that you have posted about MRI being used to see actualy processes in the brain during Karuna meditation. HAve...
Michael, I wonder if perhaps you could talk a bit about your background and what you hope will happen with this yahoo group? Can you talk about the connection...
Nowtide: As you can see, this group has not "activated" in terms of discussion. This is my fault, since I have neglected maintenance here for many months....
Dear Friends, Greetings from http://www.cyberastro.com?from=groups ! We are an astrology site from india interested in sharing some articles with you. As a...
Question to the group: Should we allow this type of post? It contains interesting information that may lend itself to vigorous discussion... but it's also a...
Mike, I thought the article was very interesting. Is it accurate? If so, I don't have a problem with it. Thanks for asking. Joan ... From: "Michael Hawkins"...
I don't have any strong opinion, but I'll talk anyway! Despite the sales pitch I found the discussion of the 9th house interesting. I'm badly in need of this...
Gail: I agree completely, and also need to work on my sense of entitlement. I recently had such an experience, while reading a new book (new to me) called...
Okay... thanks for the feedback, you guys. These folks posted a similar article a few months back, and I liked that one, too. Gail, I believe that you guys at...
Hi Joan 24 hours in to trying to feel entitled and I don't think I'm doing very well at it yet. Its all those years of feeling apologetic I suppose! Michael...
I had the feeling you were busy Michael. I've been pretty busy too - trying to stave off imminent disaster. Real world problems are not my forte! I've been...
Hi, Gail. Thanks for writing. I was in Newcastle, NSW, a couple hours north of Sydney. Where are you? I went to Australia to try to stave off disaster...
Hi, Gail. I really appreciated you quote about entitlement. I consulted the I Ching last night, as well, and as usual, it was very spot on and helpful. Today...
... Hi Joan I love the I-Ching too - its the only book you can have a conversation with! ... Its been really striking me the last couple of days just how big a...
... We are in Sydney, we would move to Newcastle if we could. Sydney is so big and anonymous and expensive. I miss the sense of community there used to be in...
I don't know, Gail, I wouldn't think it right to feel "entitled" as an adult, from anyone, unless it is earned in some way. I sure could be mistaken about...
Wow, Gail, I can sure empathacize (can't spell it tho), with your Immigration problems. We had a hell of a time. It was "supposed" to take 2 years; it took...
... That's my feeling too. My siblings and cousins may not have a problem with it but I do. Maybe thats why I'm in the position I'm in and they're not! ... ...
... I was here for 4 and a half years before I got residency - once you get it its another two years before you are entitled to anything. Now that I finally...
Hi, Gail. It was a pleasant surprise to log on tonight and find another email from you. I have found writing to be therapeutic with my anger. I have had...
Gail. Check that out, about being entitled to anything before the 2 years after residency. We were told that too, and waited. Finally went in to apply, and...
Yeah, I felt very isolated there too. In spite of loving the people for who they were, I knew absolutely no one who shared my values. I found Australians to...
... Those are exactly my issues too. Writing is such a good release, especially for the socially shy. I'm much more articulate on paper - I hate telephones...
