A Change

Hi All,

Since I have stepped away from the Zen Center, I have begun to reassess my religious role. I am moving away from being a priest and more a participant member of the religious community. Si I thought I would give up my dharma name as a "handle" and take on "JewBu" as my new one.

See ya,

What's up, Ho Tai? Crisis of the faith or gotta get a job? Seriously...why change...you apparently found peace and satisfaction in you priesthood. Few can say that about anything. Just cause we don't agree don't mean we don't care...does it?

Hey there, BFD, No crisis in faith at all. And I am retired. Nothing like that. It is simple really, I was a temple priest, but I have stepped down from my position there to just practice my way I practice Zen; I practice Judaism. I am now mostly at Temple Beth El teaching at the Academy of Jewish Learning there. I offer a course in spirituality and facillitate a weekly meditation period there. Its like the left hand informs the right hand with the heart in the center. Thanks for your reply!

See ya!

It's great that you are doing this for yourself (and in the long run for others)! I think it's great when a person comes to realise who they are and what they really want to do! Good luck!
