Overview

The practice of Buddhism is about changing our lives deep at the core. Buddhism calls on us to examine the causes of our suffering in brutal honesty. After making this self-assessment we then take the next step and make the necessary changes so we can free ourselves from the cycle of suffering in ignorance. The essays in the book are short; usually only several hundred words. It is possible to read them quite quickly. That however, is not what I intended and so I have concluded each essay with either some questions for you to consider or suggestions for actions you might decide would be beneficial. You will get the most value out of this book if you take your time and use the essays and the follow-up comments as tools. Use the book sparingly, sampling each essay as if it were a most delicious candy. This book will be of the most value to you if you actually try to use it as a tool for making changes in your life.

Author Information

Several times a year I make visits to Buddhist inmates incarcerated in Federal Prison. There is an ongoing and great need to provide spiritual direction and support to these individuals. I have received training in Healing Touch an energy based healing practice. It has been a rewarding experience training in this professionally recognized healing modality. Currently I have completed Level II as a Healing Touch Student. I am a member of the North Carolina Chaplains Association, and the Association of Professional Chaplains. I continue to do volunteer work with the Regional AIDS Interfaith Network caring for individuals who are HIV or who have AIDS/SIDA. In my spare time my favorite activities are reading and walking my dog. As time permits I support and participate in the interfaith activities of various organizations and churches in the Charlotte area who are working to promote equality and respect for LGBTQ individuals. Lately I have been doing some work with Time Out Youth providing instruction in how to meditate as well as facilitating a couple of workshop sessions on Nonviolent Communication.
