Hi everyone. I was wondering what you think of adding a section for personal photos like: family, friends, trips, work, stuff like that.
And possibly a funny picture or humour section.
What do you think? Good idea?

To save all sentient beings, though beings are numberless.
To penetrate reality, though reality is boundless.
To transform all delusion, though delusions are immeasurable.
To attain the enlightened way, a way non-attainable.

Actually it kind of is. The way I see it is that a Sangha is a group of people that get together to study and practice the Way or Buddhism. Of course, Jundo is the certified teacher on the forum and he has made this place for us to meet, but it's also up to the Sangha as well to make this a place that we want to meet at. Just my view.
That's kind of why I do the Photo sections and stuff. If I can't make a donation to the Sangha then I guess that just my form of Samu.

Will,
You obviously missed the part in the 'cult' discussion about my being infallible, and needing to approve all decisions about what goes on here. :-)
Actually, I agree with your philosophy about this place. I guess my main role around here is to break up fistfights (not necessary even once yet) and to keep some kind of focus of Zen, Zazen, Buddhism ... although people can really discuss anything they want on the forum. I suppose I will also continue to step in when I think that some assertion made by somebody is full of Dharma-baloney. That's my job, man.
Then if I may make a suggestion to the Infallible Grand Inquisitor Jundo.
Could you please sticky Will's art topics? When folks get talkative, they can sink to the bottom of the page pretty fast.
Will,
I get what you mean man, it takes all of us to make a groovy sangha.
If it is okay, I would prefer not to sticky any one topic. Just let things sink where they sink, and not keep anything artificially at the top of the list.
By the way, with all the GREAT Calvin and Hobbes cartoons ... why did you have to pick that really creepy one?
Haha. I actually wanted to find one where he's daydreaming, but I ran out of time. Had to go to class.
I think those are great. They are just so creative. I like the one where the snowman is blocking the drive way, if you've seen that. very funny.
