My brother David sent me a link to the interesting Buddhist site Be the Rigden, which appears to be about Buddhism via-à-vis modernity. Check it out. Rigden means "holder of wisdom/knowledge."
I got the Buddhism link from my brother only yesterday, so I'm still unfamiliar with the man and his site. Will be interested to hear what you have to say about him.
re: weapons and tone deafness
Sorry about that; I meant all that in good fun, and wasn't trying to admonish you at all. Quite the contrary-- I thoroughly enjoyed your posts and hope to see more of geomdo from the inside.
For myself, I'll be more careful: I shouldn't give people the impression that you're sizing them up for butchery. Heh.
I have to agree with your blogged observations on the meat-cutting demonstrations, though: it is indeed "sobering" to see what kind of damage even a glancing blow can do to a person.
All comments are subject to approval before they are published, so they will not appear immediately. Comments should be civil, relevant, and substantive. Anonymous comments are not allowed and will be unceremoniously deleted. For more on my comments policy, please see this entry on my other blog.
AND A NEW RULE (per this post): comments critical of Trump's lying must include criticism of Biden's or Kamala's or some prominent leftie's lying on a one-for-one basis! Failure to be balanced means your comment will not be published.
Sperwer,
