      Let us sit for somehow some good resolution in those talks.

      To the wisdom and compassion of our world leaders ...

      Let us sit for these folks too ...

      Three swimmers killed by sea mines in Odesa, Ukrainian media report
      https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1mpp9127dro
      A local official confirmed the three had been killed by "explosive devices", at beaches where recreational swimming is banned.

          Dear all,

          I hope to be there tomorrow and sit with you all. I have a question. Where do I find the text of the verse of atonement and the four vows? I would like to search for them or translate in Dutch.

          Peace be with you, gassho,

                  Hi, Judith... Just visit HERE >> and down at the bottom, in the Digital Resources section, you'll see the Chant Book download button. You'll find the verses there! That should help

                  "A person should train right here & now.
                  Whatever you know as discordant in the world,
                  don't, for its sake, act discordantly,
                  for that life, the enlightened say, is short." - The Buddha

                      Thank you Bion and Kotei. I will look into it. Would you be interested in having a Dutch translation in case anyone ever needs it?

                      Peace be with you, gassho,
