Today Monday Nembutsu for me will be a visit to a local temple for meditation this evening. Nice to visit Malvern on Saturday. The service by Kaspa was worth the travel down there.

My niece is in the last stages of cancer she has a brain tumour. Her dad is asking for some positive thought to help her. As he says just sending some love can do no harm. They did this last Saturday and she has now been able to stop her painkilling treatment. That could be psychological but she has. He is asking for people to try again this…[Read more]

For me I find being able to adjust slightly for people very important and to be able to offer pure land Buddhism from a western perspective. Shakyamuni saw that in the future people would be too busy to sit for hours meditating, or to spend long periods of time on retreat etc. He called this the dharma ending age.

Monday Nembutsu for me today. Visited the pagoda, meditated with Theravada monks. Didn’t make their retreat this year. Feel I missed something but had to work.

He had come to Birmingham as part of a national tour of faith organisations to consult on the recently launched integration green paper and talk of his hopes for inter faith working to support integration and community…[Read more] -

Grateful for the wonderful weather we’ve been having. Apparently some much needed rain today for all our plants.
Tomorrow we have the Birmingham service that I’m also grateful for and a potential new member also attending.
My granddaughter now has a morning ritual with me where we both need to say three things that were grateful for that day…[Read more] -

Heard today that my sons father in law has died. Affected me as I knew him and over the years due to various circumstances we grew close as we supported our children together.
Makes me understand some of the teachings on Dukkha and how we will suffer due to old age I’ll ness death and wanting and craving. That said I still feel the pain for my d…[Read more]-
Very sorry to hear that Andrew. Namo Quan Shi Yin Bosat. Unfortunately I don’t think the Buddha saud we’d ever avoid these feelings /dukkha – just that we’d be able to face pur circumstances nobly… Sending faith & Quan Yin’s compassion x
