I am sitting here in Dublin - after a whirlwind stint with Ngari Khangtsen in St. Vith performing a Medicine Buddha Mandala. And I am reflecting. How beautiful my kids are, my hubby and all surrounding me. I am eternally thankful to all of you mentioned above in the the word THEE.
I would not be this thankful, I believe, without the touch of Buddha and without the seemingly supernatural guidance of my Buddhist teachers here and elsewhere.
I probably would be just huffin' and puffin' trying to make ends meet.
The extra spice that I get from meeting the likes of Geshe Palden is that feeling of total love for all the good I have received, the total love for Good, the compassion for the Ignorant. Thank you (??) - for whatever Karma I may have acquired - and let me continue on this path...
My children - the pearls of my eyes, the diamonds, the treasures of my being. I do love you like no-one... alway will. Regardless of death and anything that happens. Believe me - that is eternal.
My hubby - a solid, straightforward trustworthy man - someone who accompanies me and supports me. Really! Thru thick and thin. I cannot believe this is true sometimes. Without him - no kids. LOVE.
Our animals - the faithful, loving, sweet companions. Hope you have enjoyed the time you spent with us. Love you to bits.
My Buddhist teachers - lay and otherwise, Kagyu, Nyingma and Gelug (the ones I have met) - you are the precious crown of Buddhist Thought and Action. Just pure pure pure love.
OM MANI PEME HUNG!
