Tonight's meditation was an interesting experience.  I started the meditation feeling very warm.  Hot, in fact.  I continued to feel warm throughout most of the meditation.  (As I pointed out to Elder Guru Vajra Yong Le, I currently seem to be sporting a permanent 'winter coat'.  An extra layer - or five - if you will!).  Towards the end of the meditation, I felt my feet and hands (particularly my hands) become very cold.  The cold seemed to be emanating towards me from in front of me, as opposed to emanating from the doorway behind me.  As I type this, warmth has returned to my hands and they are tingling.

The lesson was, as ever, amazing!  I now have a wonderful recording of the Little Living Buddha doctrinal song, featuring the newest Little Living Buddha on solo!  It was an extremely touching ceremony.  I had the clear impression that little BB was entirely aware of what was transpiring.  Before the class, while I was holding her so that xxx could go to the washroom, I would swear that BB was 'reading' the Dharma text on the nearby pillar.  Her gaze was quite direct.  I am quite entranced by the concept of reincarnation and Little Living Buddhas and was very pleased to be given the opportunity to observe Master and Sangha's heartfelt welcome to the new little person.  I could feel the concentration of energy in the room.  Very, very touching.  Or should I say 'hen3 duo1, hen3 duo1' touching?

Yours in Dharma
