I have attempted to write this post repeatedly for over a year.Each time I stopped because I did not have the concentration or ability to put into words what I wanted to convey to you about this blog and healing.The tonsil cancer and the medical treatment took a lot out of me and I am trying to strengthen but it is slow work. So forgive me for not being up to my intent. That said I still have to say to you what I believe about what it takes to be a good healer for self or others. The most important aspect of a good healer is the ability to unite in all accepting love with the person who needs your help especially if that person is YOU.

I posted this video earlier but I feel compelled to post it again. When I am confronted by more proof of the obscenities committed on the people of this country and around the world by the small groups of people who control us to enhance their wealth and power I feel righteous indignation and anger.

And education, too, is where we decide whether we love our children enough not to expel them from our world and leave them to their own devices, nor to strike from their hands their chance of undertaking something new, something unforseen by us, but to prepare them in advance for the task of renewing a common world." - Hannah Arendt

Tempa Dukte Lama He is a very good teacher and a good human being. The above photos come from the Olmo Ling web page. My and I are in the group photo taken during the weekend class. Please take the time and click the link to the Olmo Ling Bon Buddhist Center in the Link section to the right of this entry.It is a site well worth exploring. My wife My and I were blessed to discover a Bon Buddhist Center in Greenfield, a neighborhood in Pittsburgh. We attended an amazing weekend workshop on the Three Heart Mantras. "The Three Heart Mantras are the heart essencee of the teaching of the Bon Buddah, Tonpa Shenrab. Tonpa Shenrab taught these mantras to give people a practice that has the power to liberate simply by hearing or reciting it, seeing or touching it, or contemplating it." I was not feeling very well and did not think I would be able to attend so I thought I would just drop My off and go home. After meeting Tempa Dukte Lama, the Tibetan monk who teaches there and feeling t...
