Thank you so very much Roshi Joan Halifax and Wendy Johnson. Deep bow in gratitude and respect. Even though I am not a Zen Center member, I have been following the podcasts for some time now and am a practitioner in my own way. Thank you for remembering the children of MLK Middle School, who are now adults. I want to include a note to the admin of this page-- I want to encourage you to write down the FULL name of the precious teachers who speak here. I have noticed a tendency to use only their first name. I know that this is probably done due to great affection and being a devoted practitioner. I ask this for the future and for the many like myself who are ordinary practitioners in our own eclectic but also nevertheless devoted way. Or just spiritual seekers who might not know them. This will help us for practice and study, to help us to respect and understand more. I don't know if this will make it to the right admin/practitioner. But just in case, I wanted to say it. I have the deepest respect for you all and the place of sanctuary you are holding for the world. Creator bless and keep you safe and strong. Gratitude for your service so very much. Xoxo much love LH
