Good friends all,
An e-mail I received:
Bhante Gunaratana hospitalized
Our prayers are with Bhante Gunaratana
(Mindfulness in Plain English) as he undergoes heart surgery
today. We will continue to post updates on his recovery via our
facebook page as we receive them. We hope you will join us in sending
him prayers and good wishes for a safe and speedy recovery.
The Bhavana Society's August 26
event at American University has been cancelled. The Triple Event
celebration will still take place on October 6 and 7 at the Bhavana
Society in West Virginia.

If you believe in meditation/prayer, please do so for my good friend
Bhante Gunaratana. He always treated me better than I deserved.
peace...
yours in the Dhamma-vinaya,
Chuck

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

May he be well and free from disease.
May he share in my merits.

“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.”

in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

Re: Bhante Gunaratana hospitalized
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.

"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

May Bhante G's doctors have the wisdom of Jivaka.

Suffering is asking from life what it can never give you.
