Let us sit this week and express Metta for Katherine Sobun Thanas, a Teacher of the Suzuki roshi lineage, who suffered a severe injury in a fall and is only expected to remain with us in this visible world a few more days.

Hello,

thank you for letting us know. I will chant for her as well.

Though nothing is ever truly born, and nothing ever truly dies, I feel that those few in the world who say there is no reason for sadness have not lived in a way.

Gassho,

May she and her friends and relatives be at peace,

[Khalil Bodhi]

Maha-karuna.

Anicca vata sankhara—uppada vaya dhammino
Uppajjitva nirujjhanti—tesam vupasamo sukho

Impermanent are all component things,
They arise and cease, that is their nature;
They come into being and pass away,
Release from them is bliss supreme.

[Taigu]

just this
