Please embrace the needs of others in whatever safe way you can. We all need extra care nowadays.

After a last push of construction, we've finished renovation of the guest bedroom for visiting teachers... and are painting it now. When it's finished up I'll post photos. We've already been told by visitors that it would be worthy of an Air B&B (which isn't our plan).

I've taken a small construction detour in order to insure some of our food supply for the future. 16 Icelandic chickens have joined the household (at least half of whom will be egg-layers). And also two or three goat doeling kids are arriving on Friday... to share quarters with those chickens.

I built them a multi-storied home so they can share the same quarters but on different levels.

Happy Losar, World!

May the roots of virtues quickly enable all sentient beings to attain ultimate bliss, immeasurable bliss, the bliss of not rejecting birth and death yet not regressing from nirvana, undying bliss and the bliss of universal knowledge (Khenchen Konchog Gyaltshen Rinpoche).

In the spirit of Losar and fresh beginnings, I would like to dedicate this page to the two Teachers who informed me most and inspire my practice to this day - the Vidyadhara Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and Khenchen Konchog Gyaltshen Rinpoche.

May the continued worldwide efforts to support Dharma - nourish & encourage all beings. May our delusions & dissatisfactions (dhukka) be understood, eased and cast aside.

In order to do the praise sadhana for Achi Chokyi Drolma... the partronness, inspiration and protector of Drikung Kagyu lineage, one is assisted by visualising the Tibetan seed syllable Hrih. And specifically, a white Hrih.

To my knowledge this has not been rendered for general use (outside a monastery) so... based upon existing Hrih calligraphy by Sange Wangchuk... I modified it to be white "tinged with red." This prints well on medium-weight matte paper (ie. Staples).

Thanks to everyone who has stopped in to visit our page or calm-abiding.com We look forward to your visit in person.

I am asked... "What is Dara Gur?" Dara Gur is transliteration of "darragh ghuir" which in ancient Irish means Warm Nest Surrounded by Oaks. (And we are... that is, surrounded by oaks, seven of them. The oldest trees in the lower village.)

Salmon Falls Sangha (originally Central VT Sangha) began meeting in Plainfield in 1974, then moved to Montpelier, out to Greensboro, back to Montpelier... through a few other locations... and is back in its original home, in the village center of Plainfield, VT.

When renovations are completed we will be offering 2 practice sessions a week (Sunday - vipassyana meditation, and Monday or Tuesday - Drikung Kagyu Tibetan Buddhist practice). Please watch this page or calm-abiding.com for updates and news.
