Happy to read that both are ok, and thank you for sharing this example of how the fire stayed in the hearth .

Wow, glad everyone is ok. Often it can take a day or two for the experience like a bad car crash to sink in. Metta for Mina and all those involved.

Metta to all involved!
Hope the insurance will settle the material side.

To not let the flames of emotion (worry, fear) flare up too high - wow, amazing! I would be so glad to arrive at that point some time in the future.

Thankyou, Jundo.
I'm in an emotional state today and these are words that I needed to read.

Gassho.

I think of this lesson when I am pondering a passion over injustices... such as the one mentioned in another thread about the internment camps in the U.S. right now. This lesson has helped me have the courage to speak up sometimes, without having to worry that I will succumb to anger in the process. Thank you Jundo Roshi

This I again speak of this year in 2020, Jan. 5th, 2020. Suicide prevention, and concentration camps, Nietsche, and Aldo Leopold. This my 3rd Jukai.

Many, many thanks for this. A perennial topic sprouting every year. Easier this time around, Jundo.
