mikenz66 - helping out as a global moderator

Post by retrofuturist »

Greetings,

Due to unprecedented traffic here at Dhamma Wheel, Mike is going to be filling in as a Global Moderator for the time being.

We'll review the situation in the near future... taking into account factors like site traffic and whether we're overloading him with things to do (given that he's also very active as Study Group leader, as I'm sure you've noticed).

Please make Mike feel welcome in this new role.

:thumbsup:

Metta,
Retro. :)

Sadhu!
To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.

Great choice! Welcome Mike!

:anjali:
Liberation is the inevitable fruit of the path and is bound to blossom forth when there is steady and persistent practice. The only requirements for reaching the final goal are two: to start and to continue. If these requirements are met there is no doubt the goal will be attained. This is the Dhamma, the undeviating law.

Fantastic!
“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”
- Cormac McCarthy, The Road

Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.
