I am moving toward it but have not made as much progress on it as you have. I commend you and thank you for the example you are setting. My main focus right now is to just not use as much stuff ... clear out the junk I have acquired and be very careful about what new things I let into my material world. And as part of that if there is something I have that I am not using I am trying to move it out of my world and into someone else's that can use it. Namaste. Jack - that is a fine list.

Namaste.

That's why some people like Buddhism because it's the "middle way." Yes Tim, I saw the recent article and anything can be done in the extreme.
