          Jundo,

          This is one of the most powerful teachings ever.

          All my love and heart go out to little Sada, all children suffering in the universe, your family and you.

          We are one. We are here for yo.

              Hi everyone,

              Today, Thursday morning, her fever is down and all is looking better. Yeah!

              But, we don't become attached, and run after to clutch, good news either (though so tempting). We just take that as "what is" too ... rainy days just rainy, sunny days just sunny, crying days just crying, smiling days just smiling!

              That will be the subject of our next Xin Xin Ming talk.

                That´s ok, we have to accept things-as-they-are....... but anyway, hopefully this day will be a sunny one :wink:
                Thank you for your practice

                    Thank you Jundo for this teaching. One of the basic principles of my training is, "It's OK to cry!"
                    I am awed and humbled by your ability to put energy into a Dharma Talk such as this during the direst of times a parent can bear.
                    Bless You, Mina-san, Sa-chan and Le-kun;
                    from my family to yours
                    合掌,生開

                      I had tears reading your words while I nodded in agreement. It is amazing to have these two perspectives at the same time: acceptance and heart-felt concern. Maybe it's just holding the "two truths" in the heart simultaneously.

                      My sincere best wishes to you all over there.

                              Hi Guys,

                              She is coming home today, so wonderful how fast kids heal. They said she can just stay with oral medication for the next week, so no need for the hospital.

                              Yeah! I have a little sit-a-long about "Coming Home" :

                                Jundo,

                                I was so sorry to hear about your daughter's illness earlier this week. I am glad that things are on the uptake and that she will soon be comfortable in her own home.

                                All dualities come from ignorant inference.
                                They are like dreams of flowers in the air:
                                foolish to try to grasp them.
                                Gain and loss, right and wrong:
                                such thoughts must finally be abolished at once
                                ...
                                It is good for me to read this today. I have been sitting as often as I can, but with great and needless strain and confusion. I have been rising prematurely from zazen. Maybe sitting for little sick children who don't care about how perfect my technique is will keep me on the cushion. Maybe it will be the image of watchful parents up all night that will help.
