Okay, “Enlightenment or bust” might be a bit dramatic, but…

"Dang Zang" is an empty name. The blog has to do with the dharma; material related to Buddhist teachings (Tibetan style in particular, Kagyu in even more particular), meditation, gurus and lamas be they genuine or flaky, books and events. I do have a more personal blog, Pica Pica, and a site for my work.

Oh yes, it's by Alex Wilding

  • What’s holding Britain down isn’t benefits. It’s low pay 17/06/2013
    This article in the Guardian, in which Zoe Williams gives us some of David Schweickart’s thinking, is one of the most thoughtful contributions to the economy debate I’ve seen for a while. Repeat after me 7 times in fast succession: The way to make work pay is to pay for the work at a rate that makes the Read more... What’s holding Britain down isn’t benefits […]
  • Deer deer, that was a surprise 21/05/2013
    So there I was setting out with the dogs for a walk this morning, like nearly every morning, when there was a rustling and a movement in the bushes. Then out she came, maybe 10 or 15 m in front of us, what I take to be a female deer. She crossed the road and sprang Read more... Deer deer, that was a surprise […]
  • The Thatcher funeral 15/04/2013
    I am a free citizen of the United Kingdom. The police have no business whatsoever telling me whether and when to stand to attention, sit, wave, smile, salute, two-finger salute, hiss or boo. And they certainly have no business at all telling me which way I should face. This has nothing to do with “respect for the Read more... The Thatcher funeral […]
  • Had you noticed? 29/03/2013
    Probably a relatively low proportion of the people that I know would have voted for the Tories at the last election, although, given the train-wreck that Labour had become, I could understand the temptation. So perhaps I am preaching to the converted. The thing is, that Polly Toynbee, always well worth reading, has summarised with frightening clarity how Rea […]

Wisdom Sun – Yeshe Nyima

That’s the name of the Harris Park centre. After the splash as it opened, I’d almost begun to wonder whether it was time to be disappointed – little or nothing was happening. But now things really do seem to be on the move.

A newsletter has been published. You can get it from them, or download it from here.

And the E-Vam site also now has a webpage for this centre.

It’s just a pity that so much is happening all at once, what with this, the visit of Lama Pema Dorje and the visit of Dekhung Gyaltsey Ripoche (see this recent post). Where to go? What to do? Who to see? When to get round to actually practising?
