Um, usually it is me who comes up with barely tangential comments, Rick... As I understand it, MMY's comment was about PETS, not tsunami, hurricane and earthquake victims, orphans, the elderly, the poor and destitute, etc., nor even farm animals or wildlife that you work with as part of your job or visit at the zoo or fish for while on the job or while on vacation, etc. And his warning to keep pets out of the room when meditating is quite worth listening to. The very first meditation I did at home, my cats started chasing each other around he room and ended up fornicating in my lap while I was meditating. This was a bit annoying, to say the least. Are you suggesting that "Cats who are fornicating in your lap is no barrier to meditation?" Perhaps, technically, it isn't but I keep all pets out of the room when mediating and have for 33 years. ------------------------ Yahoo!
