This came in from Chris Corrigan<\/a> today, <\/p>\n

In other news<\/a>, a Buddhist temple here in Mission, BC, just sold its building worth $500,000 for tsunami relief. The head monk said that they could operate from a “temple of compassion” and that they bricks and morter needed to go. The sangha was shocked at first, but in the days following realized what a gift the action was, both for the Red Cross and for their own practice.<\/p>\n

Small change all over…sCNN as a temple of compassion…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thanks, Chris! This is certainly one of the ways that we should think about sCNN, as a sort of gathering place for compassion — not a mushy, feel good sort of compassion, though, but an active, cutting, clearing, opening and stretching — and blogging (grin) — compassion. Clarity that Works! <\/p>\n

Please add tsunami relief and\/or common good project blogs to the comments here so we can start growing the Local News<\/span> (projects) blogroll! <\/p>\n
