Someone asked me recently, “How do you judge where this Dharma is going and if leadership is doing a good job?” Innocence is great. This question was from a new student who was spending forty days in our Sadhana Seva Program. She asked a question that most would consider terribly provocative. I didn’t; I loved it!
“First of all, let me say that it’s not my business to judge anything. Analysis maybe (no emotion involved), but even analysis doesn’t always get the desired results. It’s my job to serve and teach.

Are you one of those computer users who has LOTS of files, shortcuts and links on your desktop? Our Windows desktops are much like an actual physical desktop — we have them organized just the way we like things.
Some of us like a clean desktop with all folder and application icons placed neatly in the Start menu and taskbar. Some of us prefer to spread things out across the desktop, organized in a way only we can understand.

Our beloved teacher liked to quiz us. One of his favorite questions was, “Why is the student/teacher relationship like a hammer and chisel to a stone?” That was easy to answer. However, through the years, I’ve become aware of why this question begs another. How does the student become a stone? Let’s begin.
At first blush, this is easy to answer: The student must do what the teacher says, take the hammers blows, and experience the pain of the chisel’s edge.

We have a vision... 100% Healthy, Delicious, Organic Langars offered at HGRD every day of the week... Seva Sadhana is doing its part step by step to live into this vision. We continue to produce Tuesday & Thursday langars from preparation and service, to cleanup - and we also help cover the gaps in funding to produce these meals. We believe in this vision, we believe that food is medicine, when prepared in the house of Guru Ram Das the Guru's hand is preparing the meals and all who receive the food also receive the blessing of the Guru.

Although I have not participated actively in community life for some time, there have been many connections and shared moments, spanning decades and continents and generations.

What’s the difference between obedience, blind faith, and stupidity? Do you know? It’s a difficult question. One that obedience has allowed me to answer. Please, let me explain.
Let’s start with obedience. Now, that’s a very charged word. These days, "do your own thing" is much more acceptable. It used to be that you had no choice - obedience to the king, or the consequences would follow for lack thereof. Of course, that led to massive abuse. Those in charge could pretty much do what they wanted. Many still do. Much of what they wanted wasn’t good for us so we rebelled. Many still are.
