Re: [Zen] Thanks for an engaging listserv!
Hi, Chris I am used to 4 or a multiple of for directions of wind. 10? May you be so kind to explain which ones to an ignorant?

I really enjoy interacting with the zen forum. It is entertaining and educational (in the old sense, to be led out of myself). I bow to the ten directions in gratitude. May the winds of this day find all of you well! Thanks, Chris Austin-Lane Sent from a cell phone

I was mixing metaphors there. 10 directions is traditional in zen sutras for all the world. (north, south, east, west, ne, se, nw, sw up and d I am at a beach along California highway 1, a windy beautiful place. The winds of the world flow all along without discrimination, and sending thanks from this windy brisk day to all you all over the world it seemed an appropriate image.

Re: [Zen] Thanks for an engaging listserv!
Chris and Lluis: Thank you for such a sweet thought!. It brought a big smile on me. I paste here a video with Spanish subtittles created by myself with the chanting and practise of Metta sending energy to the 10 directions. Tibetan Photographs from this video were passed onto me by a young Tibetan gentleman who is not a monastic but lives in Tibet. I've found very beautiful this practise of Metta. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V6aBQ5bHbg Lay back Members and enjoy sending energy to 10 directions!!!
