This Sunday at our regular gathering we will continue with the care of
the earth theme that Pete and our teacher Thich Nhat Hanh brought to us
last week. Thay wrote that "every Buddhist practitioner should be a
protector of the environment" (from
The World We Have, A Buddhist Approach to Peace and Ecology). Marge will introduce the Earth Holder
Bodhisattva and the
Earth Peace Treaty Commitment Sheet, and we will
contemplate our own personal role in caring for the planet as we
approach Earth Day, April 22.
