The Way of the White Clouds by Lama Anagarika Govinda: Best books, mystery stories white clouds
Lama Anagarika Govinda was one of the last foreigners to journey through Tibet before the Chinese invasion of 1950. A devoted Buddhist and a spokesman for Tibetan culture, Govinda's luminous and candid account is a spectacular and gloriously poetic story of exploration and discovery, and a sensitive and lucid interpretation of Tibetan traditions. Robert Thurman's perceptive new introduction to the volume places Govinda's writings in historical context and opens a new door on understanding Tibet, Buddhism, and the life of a remarkable man who, as Thurman remarks, is "undoubtedly one of the West's greatest minds of the twentieth century, a member of the pantheon that includes Einstein, Heisenberg, Wittgenstein, Solzhenitsyn, Gandhi, and the Dalai Lama."

“True patience is founded on understanding the truth. It is much deeper than mere sufferance of hardship. Patience is a virtue that is based on a profound perception of ultimate reality. At its deepest levels, patience requires no energy because its perception of the truth is complete. When we truly understand that all trials of the phenomenal world are empty and that all phenomenal manifestations are impermanent, we will no longer need to use energy to be patient with them.” --Master Hsing Yun, “Lotus in a Stream”

A Good and Honest Heart
When I travel, the person sitting next to me often asks, “You are a Buddhist? Tell me what Buddhism is.” …I have often asked my teachers , especially my father, His Holiness Mindrolling Trichen Rinpoche, about that. He would always say, “Don’t you see? Gathering the eighty-four thousand teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha in one point: a good heart, and an honest heart.” This is the answer to the question, “What is Buddhism?”
--Ven. Khandro Rinpoche

Robert Reese Jones, linguist and scholar, who had been a Senior Professor at Sagami Women's University in Kanagawa, Japan, died on September 20, 2009 in Taipei, Taiwan. He was 68.
The cause was heart failure, his sister Jeanette Sands said.
Mr. Jones had published many articles in Japan and elsewhere and had influenced many students during his long teaching career in Japan. At the time of his death, he was close to finishing a book comparing Sino-Tibetan and Mayan.
American Buddhist Net News
September 21, 2009
Nihill, CA: A large database that had been destroyed by human error was found and replaced through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request made to the NSA (National Security Agency) by a popular website based in California.
"We were beside ourselves with worry," said Richard Freeny, CEO of "Your Place or Mine," a website that describes itself as being for "Eccentrics and fringe thinkers everywhere."
"All of our data was lost. I mean, everything. Years of work lost forever until Maria suggested contacting the NSA," Freeny said during an interview at his office in Nihill, CA.
Some people say the fifth precept is concerned with alcohol. Some say alcohol and other intoxicants. Some say alcohol and other intoxicants that lead to "heedlessness." Some say all intoxicants lead to heedlessness and that thus the fifth precept asks us to refrain from all of them.
A very fine Sri Lankan translator and Buddhist scholar personally told me that the fifth precept should be translated thus: "I take it upon myself to refrain from the irresponsible use of alcohol which can cause heedlessness." I may have the words slightly off, but his point was refraining from "irresponsible use" of alcohol and that "irresponsible" means becoming "heedless."

American Buddhist Net News
June 1, 2009
Oakdale, CA: Scientists at Montsaint Genie Tech Inc. announced today that they have successfully transferred the gene segment that produces the psychotropic chemical THC in cannabis plants to many other common garden plants, including tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, carrots, and more.
"We probably can put the THC segment into almost any plant in existence," says lead scientist Rebeca Vale. "It's a very simple process. We are starting work on oak and maple trees now."
Asked if the resulting plants could be used in ways similar to cannabis, Vale replied, "Well, you can't make twine out of a tomato plant, but if someone were to dry it and smoke it, all of the medicinal and psychotropic effects of marijuana would be present. And what's more, we have learned that tomatoes, in particular, actually produce more THC than cannabis itself."
But is it legal? "Actually, yes," says Vale. "Our research qualifies as GMO 'intellectual property', as does the process itself. Since tomatoes and other plants are not illegal, a person would be well within the law to grow them and use them as they please."
Vale says that her company is working on a spray that will transfer the segment to many plants simply by spraying the leaves of seedlings.
"It's a very simple process," she says. "Anyone can do it. We plan to start selling the spray - 'Genie Mist' - in a matter of weeks. One bottle will sell for five dollars and be capable of treating 6,000 seedlings."
But how do the tomatoes taste? "Scrumptious," Vale says. "But, of course, they are best when roasted."
(Marquette, MI) - Members of a Zen Buddhist temple are among two northern Michigan Buddhist communities that joined 100 churches and temples in planting 12,000 trees across the Upper Peninsula in early May during the 2009 interfaith EarthKeeper Tree Project.
Volunteers planted the 12,000 trees by homes, camps, parks, American Indian reservations and many other places with help from hundreds of children ranging in age from two-years-old to 22-years-old during the interfaith U.P. EarthKeeper Tree Project.
Rev. Tesshin Paul Lehmberg, a Soto Zen Buddhist priest, told the Northern Michigan University EarthKeeper (NMU EK) Student Team Sacred Planet forum how 2,500 years ago "the Buddha sat under a tree" called the Bodhi Tree until he discovered "the root of suffering - and how to rid one's self of suffering."
