Dear Mayka,
How are you? I am concerned. Are you are seeking outward and not
inward? Are you expecting from or being dependent on TNH?
Are you being turned by situation (form)?
Concerned,
JM

Someone that is there educating, correcting, guiding, present. You
won't ever see any good teacher of any subject absented from the
classroom. Watch the five documentary video and you'll understand the
point I'm trying to make here. When you reach to the last video
you'll be seeing that Teacher leaves the children only when they have
already learnt. He doesn't leave the classroom in the hands of the
children. First he educates them and stay with them supervising...

/I had just had an immaginary Teacher for many years. He wasn't
real. He was never present, or available, or guiding.
correcting.. .he was just a tape, video, dvd, book...I currently
see him more a kind of pleasant show to be watched and
listened rather than a real Teacher. /

Mayka,
I am very glad you came back. As regards the difference you
talk about between Christianity and Buddhism, I agree to some
extent. The former is more emotional, more intending to help,
while the latter is trying to do away with emotions, which
they think are harmful. Nevertheless, I think it is too
premature for you to give up on TNH, who is a wonderful
personality.
Anthony

/Hi Mike, Anthony... and all of you. How very kind of you
both to ask for me. Not often this happens to me in
groups. Hardly ever anyone miss me!. . I've been away in
Spain most of July. I have some access to internet but
not much and when I did this mail used mainly in
groups wasn't available. Besides I wasn't feeling much
talkative. I had to renounce to the TNH retreat in the UK
because I have some special needs and can travel alone
right now...The hardest part here was to finding out once
again that the only benefit I get from my sangha is the
sitting down together and that once that is finished is
better to thanks for the sitting in company and walk away
from them as far as possible. By the way and whatever
you all say, the Christian Communities do care a lot of
more for the vulnerable but the new western buddhist and
alike, don't give a dam!. They may be all in maxim red
alert urgent need of oxygeno for themselves!./

Mike,
Zen is everyday life, so it is a project, a hobby and
everything you can think about.
Yes, I miss Mayka too.

Mayka,
I haven't been posting recently (most of the
topics are a bit too naff for me - makes Zen sound
like a hobby or some kind of a project). Anyway,
haven't seen you post for a while and I know you
have health issues in your family. Everything ok?
Mike
