The Underlying Assumption
12/27
Hi everyone. I'm sitting at a fake wood desk on a concrete floor of a converted garage in southern New Hampshire USA.
This is the first posting in my first and only blog, "The Transmission of Light".
The inspiration for the name comes from a Buddhist text that chronicles the transmission of the original mind from Buddha down through the successor of Dogen in Japan, and slightly beyond.
The reason I picked the name is pretty straightforward. I intend this blog to be primarily, but not exclusively, a record of my spiritual quest. Tangential to that quest will be the posting of poems, narratives, anecdotes, etc.
It seems to me that getting it down on virtual paper will be an interesting way to help myself grow, self-observe, and hopefully receive feedback from friends (old and new) throughout the world.
Now I am going to go see if I can actually access this blog. Bye for now!

It worked. More in a while.
HI from Seo,
I have been watching a DVD of the life story of the Buddha and was very moved by it - its interesting that you should raise this in your blog.
