And now a word from Buddhist Bootcamp

"Buddhist Bootcamp" is one of my new favorites -- a site that describes its mission with this quote from the Dalai Lama:

"Don't try to use what you learn from Buddhism to be a Buddhist; use it to be a better whatever-you-already-are."

Here's the piece making the rounds on facebook today!

We are all equal.
Regardless of religion or geographical region.
Whether you believe we are all created in God's image or that we all have Buddha nature, equality is fundamental.
Honoring the divinity within all beings means ALL beings (period).
Amen.

    I saw the title and thought you were attending winter sesshin somewhere.
