- Namaste or Gassho, Hola or Halo
What can be a very confusing issue, bowing, is enjoyably explained by Kris.
- Feel the Music in You
We’ve recently looked at the importance of sound, continuing this, Alex looks at music. - Three Useful Meditation Tips

I’d be interesting in sitting with you guys.
Oh thank you for including my post on Namaste vs. Gassho my friend, I so glad it is a good tool in navigating meaning.
Gassho,
Kris
Hi Wade,
Schumacher was a christian not a Buddhist. Though the book does have a chapter on Buddhist economics, and his approach was entirely compatible with Buddhism (so far as I understand it).
How does one sit together online?! Count me in, if the process isn’t to technical. Ha!
oh-btw…esangha list of bloggers are sincerely a blessing. I am always interested in the most sacred beliefs of truths.
@Jon, Invited
@Kris, Thank you for your post. It was very interesting and entertaining, a great mix!
@Evan, very interesting. There’s so much written about him and his Buddhist Economics paper, as well as a talk of his core philosophy that’s in Small is Beautiful being Buddhism. I’d love to read more about him as a Christian if you’ve got links. Google’s only pointed me to a paper on it. Wikipedia covers him from the Buddhist side moreso also.
@Terry, I’ve just sent you mail. It’s pretty basic, I hope, drop me a comment/e-mail if you’ve got any questions.
May we exist in muddy water with purity like a lotus; thus we bow to Buddha.
Gassho,
Wade
Just like when we were young back in the sixties.
Sitting around a room and talking about God. I would like to join.
Hi David,
Very nice image, thanks for that
