    HIYA! I'll be in Bangkok from Sep 18th or 19th and will be there or about a week. If anyone will be free to talk or to run around with me, let me know. I'm on the hunt for some Zen Buddhism or other really cool places, like ... and this one is a long shot too, but Taoist teachers, Sufis (I'm pretty sure Thailand's got some) (ภาษาไทยว่า ซูฟีย์ ผมค่อนข้างจะชัวร์ว่ามีนะ), or even Christians doing a contemplative practice using meditation. I've got a couple of leads on Zen but will be winging it with anything else. I've got a couple of other things I'll need to do in Bangkok too. I'll head to a Buddhist temple either in Krabi or Kanchanaburi after I leave Bangkok.

new video on the children's/teens course, 'Seeds Of Awareness'

My husband and kids just watched this, it's beautiful!!!   http://www.children.dhamma.org/en/videos/seeds.shtml   Three of my kids have gone on multiple children and teen courses and my oldest has gone on 3 adult courses.  The children/teen courses are extremely wonderful, I'd say the very best experience you can give a child.  The parents of the child do not have to be old students, (have taken a course).  We've taken a few friends of our kids too! :)     P.S. iLuvGR33N sent this to me and…
