My Buddhist pilgrimage

 I am writing this post in Bangkok, Thailand after two weeks in Bhutan, the Vajrayana Buddhist country. I was one of two dozen on this pilgrimage, led by two American lamas. This was the most memorable and spiritually profound experience of my life. It increased my conviction to devote the core of my life to meditation and study of Buddhism as I adjust to Sara’s passing and my retirement. How amazing to experience a genuine culture steeped in Buddhism and in the company of deep practitioners!
