This weekend we will be celebrating another year in the life of the Sangha, by holding a feast offering and taking Refuge and Bodhisattva Vows. On the Sunday we will remind ourselves how death comes without warning. Are we living our lives in a way in a way that is true to what we are discovering about the true nature of our being? Are we ready to die with confidence?
