What if my home becomes a future zendo... What if nobody ever heard of the Dharma, how else will they find out except from someone willing to share... I am not marketing Zen, I am simply hanging up a flag for both my own awareness, and to bring about awareness around me. I do think the hunters will discuss the flag, I think they will think about what they are doing both to the animals and to other human beings.
I may hang it up next to the american flag showing gratitude that I am able to practice Buddhism in our towne. They know I am not a haloed angel or else I wouldn't have got into trouble in the first place. The elmer fudd idea is cute, but that would make them more upset than the Buddhist flag. I will consider the suggestion, if you come up with a better one please pass it on. > As a seroius suggestion. Why don't you host a past-time on days that are typical hunting days. Make it the best damn "bowling saturday" that town's ever seen (and don't dare utter a word of your hangup with animal eatin'). Then, if you need the self-back-patting (like i would) imagine all the animals that weren't killed for each would-be-hunter that shows up and drinks your beer? > > Rod Scholl > > > ------------------------ Yahoo!
