The #Master race = #Dhamma #sangha #buddhahood. or degrees in mindfulness = education?
merits plus academic achievements
The Masters = Master degrees
The Grandmasters = doctors/professors/PhDs.

Noble profession is teaching. Healing. Human rights freedom warriors!

The 'Walk for Peace' enters Richmond on Monday. This is what it's like to walk with the monks Peace as a word and symbol is ever present on homemade signs along the Walk. Peace as a feeling also permeates the air along the path trodden by the monks, and soldiers on no matter the weather.

All of the monks on the #WalkforPeace belong to the #Theravada #Sangha #Tradition of #Buddhism, one of #TheOldestPathways in Buddhism which translates to #TheWayOftheElders, ( #Lao meaning vey-old #vedic) and follows a strict adherence to #theOriginalTeachings #discipline of the historical #Buddha.

A Monastery for Laypeople: Birken Forest Monastery and the Monasticization of Convert Theravada in Cascadia > Theravada as practiced by most converts in the West is distinguished by the absence of monasticism, its dominant institution. > Nevertheless, Thai Forest monasticism has managed to gain a foothold in the convert West, thanks to the efforts of convert monastics trained in Thailand. > This article analyzes the missionary project to “monasticize” Western lay converts through the history of Birken Forest Monastery in British Columbia, Canada, founded in 1994.

Sobriety Kyôsaku An intoxicant is any external source that draws you deeper into yourself, your beliefs, your egocentrism, and away from direct experience of the real, present moment. Samsaric life is floating down a river of intoxicants; it’s difficult to go against the flow but it’s the only hope. – insight from a fellow Zen hermit in my Twitter sangha. _(Photo of Oregon's Rogue River courtesy of Hamad Darwish and Wikimedia Commons.)_
