This Is This

So 10 years after leaving print journalism, I’m back in the press writing about Buddhism and my talk on Vesak at my daughter’s school.

If you’re going to look back, you may as well be moving forward.

The publication is Mandala, which a great magazine the webstie of which you can visit here. The editor was kind enough to mention this site as well.

I’m in the August/September edition which comes out in mid-July and I guess they are going to run it online later. You can get the magazine in the US and the UK, just like this. If you can’t wait that long, it’s a print version of an article I posted last month, which you can find here in the archives. If you’re going to look forward, you may as be moving back.

Also, thanks very much for everyone from Blogmandu who visited this webstie over the last few days (some for the first time) while I delivered probably my worst ever publishing experience, what with the site crashing and the migration and redesign.

Cheers especially author/editor Tom Armstrong who (totally by surprise) turned the spotlight of the weekly Zen Unbound roundup to this site exclusively.

Tom’s brought many good sites into the people’s minds and to be mentioned alongside any of those is one of those rare combinations of being a privilege and a cool thing.
