Schmidt Happens...

...back in the day, during his teachings Trungpa Rinpoche would sometimes reference "Joe Schmidt". In his marrow-piercing high-pitched thunderbolt of a voice, Trungpa would say something like "So, just suppose Joe Schmidt comes along...".

Of course, Trungpa's mantra power being what it was, he somehow actually conjured up Joe Schmidt. Despite the fact no one's ever actually seen Joe Schmidt, he now has his own blog. There's a link to it, bottom left...

Feeling Pretty Sassy...

...humbled by no HTML experience, but driven by a large Cafe Mocha and the words of a good friend who said "Any monkey can figure out how to put links on his blog...", I've managed to create links on the blog.

1. The Chronicles Project: first hand stories about Trungpa Rinpoche.
2. The Konchok Foundation: the rebuilding of the Trungpa Rinpoche's home monastery (Surmang) in Tibet.
3. The Dharma Ocean Center: dedicated to the study/preservation of the teachings of Trungpa Rinpoche. Started by Dr. Reggie Ray, Author "Indestructable Truth". *this site has downloadable MP3's of some guided meditation practices.
