land is truly the spontaneously perfect mandala of the three
thousand fold universe. It is sprinkled with the water of
naturalness the rain. Its pathways and trails are the natural
liner of the design of the mandala and the footprints of the
deer are drawings in colored sand powder." Richard

experience of retreat. I cannot thank you enough for supporting

thanks for all the tasty vittles. Your efforts fueled

"Dear
Vajrapani Staff-Persons
. I want to thank
you so MUCH for all you've given me during my retreat
here. This past week has been a very rich experience for
me; many blessings to you for the loving care you put
into maintaining there beautiful cabins and facilities,
into preparing and delivering such amazing meals (do you
have a RECIPE BOOK? Last night's lentil soup was the
best I've ever had!!), and in attending to the needs of
the Retreaters. With much gratitude, Natalie"
Love song to my
hosts #1
How many trillions
of lives
Must I have slaved
for others,
To find myself cared for so well?
Treated to sumptuous food and service.
Fit for the kind of the World!
I soar like a rocket on the fuel you have given me.
I will strive to reach orbit-
I will not fall and crater
I bow to you.
Final love letter to my
wonderful hosts
How ironic, how sad
A cynic may think
That our Holy Lama
Is just some guy with
Spiritual pretensions
When in fact s/he is
A Being who spans
All time and space
But to teach us pretends
Just to be some guy
Because of faith we
make this:
We create them with out service
If I can see one Holy Angel
Then maybe two with faith and service
Maybe I can see His
attendants
And all helpers as Angels, too.
And all the students and centers
They could be Angels if I have faith
They live in Angel
nations
In Angel cities on Angel Worlds
When I can see that: my work
Is through, for I will be an Angel, too.
And suffering ends for all.
