A common space for harmonic peacemakers
Today we lost the one and only Roshi Bernie Glassman , one of the world's great Zen Clowns, a brilliant teacher, a man who danced with gravity and joy on the tightrope of the Scared and the Sacred. He did Bearing Witness retreats in places like Auschwitz and the streets of New York City, helped found the Zen Peacemakers order, and so much more. Thank-you for living your teachings, and all you have shared. You are a blessing. Travel well.
