		<description>Hi Jerry,

Thanks for the comments on the ads, it's great to know they are not too intrusive. It's great to be able to provide Dana for the real world Sangha from time to time using ads on this site. It's like a double win to me :)

When I've been stuck previously, like when I posted this initially, I really asked myself, what am I lacking. I sat with it, and didn't try do anything. Just listened. I already knew what was needed, I just needed to listen. 

From what I understand this is always the case. We always know what we need if we listen and trust our selves.

Peace,

Wade</description>

		<description>â€œAligning myself with the pathâ€ is something I struggle with.  I ask myself, should I stay the course with the challenges placed in front of me because they may contain lessons I need or should I make a change to a more peaceful path to facilitate my studies.  Sometimes it is difficult to tell which is better...taking the risk of missing out on an important lesson or finding a peaceful place.  Perhaps it does not matter in the end because the lessons always seem to find you again.

PS â€“ The ads donâ€™t bother me.  I didnâ€™t really notice them until they were pointed out.</description>

		<description>Hi Al,

Money raised through the advertising on this site is donated back as dana to Buddhist Communities/Resources such as Zencast, InfinteSmile, AlanWatts Podcast, Shasta Abbey and Insight Meditation Center.

This site is not being run to line my pockets.  You will also note my buddihst ringtones/logos/resources/timers/chimes/mp3s are all free.

Peace,

		<description>Somehow, all of the ads take away from the "Commentries on Buddhism, Meditation, Philosophy, Psychology, Zen &#38; Mindfulness."

Think Buddha would have advertised? Something like: this enlightenment lecture brought to you by "Buddha Ringtones.  Click here to send a Buddha rington to your phone now!."</description>
