It’s done. Not much to look at, but there you have it. If it is of use to people, I’m happy. If it’s not, well, I guess I still have to be happy… why let my happiness depend on the happiness of others? It is sad to think that inevitably there will be people [...]

First, for those of you who thought you were following me on Twitter, you’re probably not; when I deleted my Facebook account, my Twitter account went with it. Then I realized Twitter is actually useful, so I restored my account with them. It’s a good way to keep up with what I’m doing, especially [...] Okay, so I’m writing a book. Well not actually a book… probably only twenty or thirty pages long. And not really writing it, either, more like editing transcripts of my How To Meditate videos and reformatting them as a book(let). Anyway, here’s chapter one: Chapter One: What is Meditation? Another reason to switch to Linux, besides the fact that embraces Buddhist values of freedom and cooperation, is that it does all sorts of useful things, provided you are willing to exercise your cranium in order to figure them out. Here’s one that’s fairly easy to work with, called “display-dhammapada”, a script used to [...] After the hit that was this year’s Visakha Puja celebration, I wouldn’t have thought we could manage to pull it off again. In another amazing feat of determination and perseverence, we managed as a group to pull off another makeshift Buddhist celebration to rival any I’ve seen.

Please join us at 8 PM on this Sunday, July 25th [...] I guess I do post Buddhist stuff here, though it seems pretty insubstantial… somehow I got on someone’s list of top fifty Buddhist blogs… makes me think there can’t be many more than that out there. Anyway, it’s a good list, I think, so check it out and assumedly find some good Buddhist blogs… besides, of course, this good Buddhist blog, or whatever it is…
Sadly, whoever is behind this site neglected to offer links to the weblogs, though they expect us to post links to their site (in the form of badges). That’s really bad form, in my opinion (it means we direct traffic to their site, but they don’t direct traffic to ours), so I’m taking the liberty of reposting the list here with links added: Continue reading Best Buddhist Blog 2010! Or Something Like That… By Ven Dr. K Sri Dhammananda Download Torrent Transcripts for my videos are finished, thanks to a group of kind volunteers and YouTube’s built-in subtitling system, and the next step is to start translating them. Here are the subtitle files, if anyone is able to translate them into another language, please feel free. You can use: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Subtitle_Workshop to open these files and [...] “Love looks not with the eyes but with the mind; And therefore is wing’d cupid painted blind: Nor hath Love’s mind of any judgment taste; Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste.” from “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” “To mourn a mischief that is past and gone Is the next way to draw new mischief [...] |
