Thanks for all the welcomes.
Took a little break to make sure real life was still out there.

Real life is different from virtual life.
I could look up Buddhist art online but it's not nearly as affective as seeing the monks at the art gallery creating a sand mandela. That was the treat last month. Too bad they didn't speak English.

The real ideal, is to strike a balanced medium between real & virtual worlds! Have fun trying!

I watched a group of Buddhist monks making a sand mandala in Canberra a couple of years ago, Koan. And when they had finished, they just swept it away. Which somehow was the point. Amazing. And of course they said nothing.

I watched a little three year old kid build an elaborate sandcastle and then the tide came in and washed it away, then it started raining. In Scotland we teach them early.
