Reflection

Twenty-eight rains

A friend asked what twenty-eight years as a bhikkhu has taught me. The answer surprised me: how little I know, and how that no longer worries me. The certainty I had at year three has long burned off. What replaces it is not knowledge. It is presence. Presence does not need to know.

Teaching

Good Question Good Answer, twenty years later

I wrote that little book in 1996. People still ask me about it. Most of the answers I would write differently now. Some I would write the same. Books are like that. They are the truest snapshot of the practitioner we used to be. We owe them no fealty, only honesty about what has changed.
