    Another season, another year to review the Dharma Gates

    Thanks to all who viewed and participated in the Dharma Gate Review this year. The responses were wonderful and give some material to research and perhaps improve next year's effort. Enjoy the summer and Ango and we'll begin again after Rohatsu.

                And opportunity ist lost.
                Each of us should strive to awaken.
                Awaken, take heed,
                Do not squander your life.​“ - Life and Death and The Great Matter

                    Thank you Shokai! I did my best to read along, though I fell off at the end because of a sudden increase in work demands.
