A rocky road ahead.......        (California storms 2005, from AJ)

 

(A really funny story found on the Internet)

Good Intentions....

An elementary school class started a class project to make a planter to take home to their parents. They wanted to have a plant in it that was easy to take care of, so they decided to use cactus plants. The students were given green ware pottery planters in the shape of a clown, which they painted with glaze. The clown planters were professionally fired at a class outing so they could see the process.

It was great fun. They planted cactus seeds in the finished planters and they grew nicely but unfortunately the children were not allowed to take them home…the cactus plants were removed and small ivy replaced them and the children were then allowed to take them home instead. The teacher said cactus seemed like a good idea at the time…

On Sunday, February 20th, we had an "energy" discussion at the Center. 
Here are some interesting links that I mentioned during the service:

Gathered from a ZEN Calendar, one page a day....

 

When confusion ceases, tranquility comes; when tranquility comes, wisdom appears, and when wisdom appears, reality is seen.

BUDDHIST SAYING

 

At first you will think of practice as a limited part of your life. In time you will realize that everything you do is part of your practice.

BABA RAM DASS


I never look at the masses as my responsibility; I look at the individual. I can only love one person at a time—just one, one, one. So you begin. I began—I picked up one person. Maybe if I didn’t pick up that one person, I wouldn’t have picked up forty-two thousand. . . . The same thing goes for you, the same thing in your family, the same thing in your church, your community. Just begin—one, one, one.

MOTHER TERESA

  

People with opinions just go around bothering one another.

THE BUDDHA

 

There is neither heaven nor earth, only snow, falling incessantly.

HASHIN

 

The first thing you learn in life is you’re a fool. The last thing you learn is you’re the same fool. Sometimes I think I understand everything. Then I regain consciousness.

RAY BRADBURY

 

To give real service you must add something, which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.

Donald A. Adams

  

When we are not sure, we are alive.

GRAHAM GREENE

 

I believe in the essential unity of all that lives. Therefore I believe that if one person gains spiritually the whole world gains, and if one person falls, the world falls to that extent.

MOHANDAS K. GANDHI

 

What need have I of gold? The whole world is gold for me!

NAROPA

 

A guru is like a fire. If you get too close you get burned; if you stay too far away, you don’t get enough heat.

TIBETAN PROVERB

 

Thought you might enjoy this---                            (from  Sandra Glosser)
 

I not sure exactly how it works, but this is amazingly accurate.  The attached photo has 2 almost identical dolphins in it. It was used in a case study on stress level at St. Mary's Hospital. Look at both dolphins jumping out of the water. The dolphins are identical. A closely monitored, scientific study of a group revealed that in spite of the fact that the dolphins are identical; a person under stress would find differences in the two dolphins.  If there are many differences found between both dolphins, it means that the person is experiencing a great amount of stress.  Look  at the photograph and if you find more than one or two differences you  may want to take a vacation.
