A touch of CLASS,

I am an ordained monastic in the Tibetan tradition. I am 59 years old. I have been reading Shambhala Sun for a very long time. I could not really ever afford a subscription, but I found old magazines in the strangest of places...and synchronistically the dharma articles were medecine for whatever mental darkness ailed me! As a source for networking, inspiration for practice, and just plain philosphical stimulation..the Shambhala Sun continues to be excellent. Through the years I have disliked the material world of dharma...displayed so seductively on the pages of the magazine, but I tolerate it. And sometimes I drool over the STUFF. It has been my privilege to study the Buddha teachings over thirty years, to have incredible Masters and to have TIME to practice deeply. I think Shambhala Sun was part of this journey., And when I lost my beloved eldest son to cancer in June 2006, I again "found" a magazine, outdated, on DEATH, that presented itself to my desperate mind....thank you! May you continue to publish truth and culture and dharma....tashi delek! Ven Tenzin Tsultrim Matok Parkin (kathmandu, nepal)
