Love and happiness !!! :)

Thank you so much for this wonderful photo. I have not seen H.Holiness Sakya Trinzen for 17 years. As he is my root Lama I keep his picture along with His Holiness in my house. Today I have sponsered a 13 year old girl in Kham through a Japanese ngo called tibet-aid.org She needs financial help to be able to go to junior high school. Her family is quite poor and her father ill. Their traditional farming lifestyle has been broken and she needs new skills, especially as a young woman. I feel priveledged to be able to help her directly.

Greetings: (Tell Everyone)

It is the world that is going to make a difference in stopping the wars and obtaining the peace collectively!

> I would like to welcome everyone to the Spiritual Fasting Group starting on 11th of January for at least 21 days. Fasting is very powerful to bring forth things in your life that are positive and remove anything that is negative. Fasting purifies the spirit and enhance the mind and body to a healthier life. See below:
>
> Know that all human hearts are welcome here, regardless of one's color, creed, condition or philosophy, because everyone is just like you and me--wanting happiness, and disliking suffering. In other words, seeking joy and freedom from suffering is the birthright of all living beings (not just us humans).
>
> The word 'spiritual' has many connotations, but all of us who've done prolonged, skillful fasting know our mind is clearer, sharper and more efficient--a greater clarity of consciousness. By using this fasting-enhanced clarity, our journey into the human interior can reward us with many essential correctives to the extreme materialism of our external culture and its dominant sciences. Also, just as our own inner-mind becomes clearer, our own extrasensory instinct becomes keener. Thus, we find ourselves more in tune with the gentle voice of Nature and its Natural Laws. And so, the increase in energy prolonged fasting confers is our own reward for getting back in touch with these so-called Laws of Nature.

News: Wars and rumors of Wars around the world, Palestinians and Jews are being murdered, Environment dying, Fla. woman likely jumped overboard (suicide), In Phila. 6 dead and 3 wounded (violence), Cheyenee, Wyo earthquakes 3 days straight, China border 3 tremors Dec. 27th and In May 80,000 people killed from earthquakes and more. It is imperative that we fast and ask for the relief of suffering around the world. What affects one affects all!!!!! If need advice on how to fast, please ask at anytime-we have a teacher to teach us.
