All Sentient Beings
I am very touched by the comment added by Gina to the Hunger Strike item at the Amida Order weblog. Joan is going on hunger strike to bring attention to the death and torture suffered by vast numbers of animals in for the most part completely fruitless experiments in university laboratories - in this instance in Oxford. Joan is in her eighties and so it is no small challenge to her to undertake this. I shall be going to Oxfod to join her myself on Friday and Saturday.

many thanks for your reflections on life and buddhism.not only am i seeking an engaged buddhism but also one that can accept the variety of human beings. nature is not tidy. frequently our rigid categories are however unwittingly, agents of fear, exclusion and defensiveness. i speak with some feeling on this, for i experience gender dysphoria and this leads to much misunderstanding and exclusion.
