    May all beings be happy, peaceful, and free

    I vow to save all sentient beings, though beings are numberless
    I vow to transform all delusions, though delusions are inexhaustible
    I vow to percieve reality, though reality is boundless
    I vow to attain the enlightened way, a way unattainable

    I wish smiles, happiness and joy for you on your journey.

    Take Care perhaps we will meet again

    Where are you going Will?

    I noticed that you've deleted nearly all of your posts? And you didn't answer my private message.

    What happened Will?

    Please reconsider, I enjoy your insight and opinions on things.

    Don't let the opinions of others get under your skin.

      Jun thank you for your post. This forum, however, seems like something that I can do without.


      Jundo I must apologize for leaving you with all those deleted posts.

        Will,

        Perhaps you just need a little break? Don't just up and leave please, take a break and pop back in now and then so we know you are ok.

        The question really is can the forum do without you? I think not.

          Hi Will,

          No one can judge you, or judge what's best for you. Only you can do that for yourself. I sincerely hope you decide to stick around. In any case, I wish you all the best.

                  Hi, Will.
                  I agree with Jun; take a little break maybe. My grandmother used to say "It takes all kinds."
                  I hope that you will return soon.
                  My best . . . Gassho,

                    Hey Will,

                    Good bye for now. Take good care.

                    I understand how you feel. I've taken a recent break myself.

                    Whatever the future brings I wish you the best.

                    Gassho,

                      I hope you will reconsider, or at least visite from time to time.

                      But I respect whatever you feel is best.

                      Take care friend.

                      Live in joy and peace, even among the troubled

                          I'm confused. Don't go, Will.

                            Too bad Will's leaving. I've read some of his posts, and they're interesting. It does seem like an extraordinary step to delete all his own posts (which are numerous). And now I see Harry is leaving too. Looks like both joined the same week. And neither would put a picture of themselves up. Hmmm. I'm not into conspiracy theories, but... nah. :wink:

                              Hi Will...bye, Will. Well, all things are impermanent. In the monastery so many people came and went that we got to calling samsara the "world of comings and goings." Enjoyed your offerings. Good luck with your music.

                              Now here, then there, and back again....like Frodo, Bilbo and Gandalf.

                              Be well, friend!! Take good care, watch for golums, give all dragons a kiss, all maidens a helping hand. Stop in every now and again to just say howdy.

                              With bows...
