Read This Instead... Please!

I'm off for the weekend this morning. I'd ask anyone who might have checked in to read The Buddha Dairies to read this instead, as a favor to yourself. And while you're at it, this is important, too. And this, a valuable historical reminder. And then there's this. All from today's Op-Ed pages of the New York Times. Feel the outrage. One of the great teachings of the Buddha is that we must never stop paying attention. And as someone said, these days, if you're not ouraged, you're not paying attention. Have a great weekend, Buddha lovers!
