Dear IBS
Early last year I became
interested in your Buddhist Services and consequently took the five precepts in
March 2012. I am very grateful for the access to all of the services every
month by the International Bodhisattva Sangha (IBS)
Though I am new to Buddhism, I
have gained some insight into the way of the path. This has given me some
structure in life. I sometimes stray from the path but never forget to get back
on the path.
Buddhism has illuminated and awaked my inner
Buddha!
I recently transferred from Chukawalla Valley State
Prison up to the Newley converted Valley State Prison in Chowchilla. I
immediately contacted the chapel here for Buddhist services. There is no formal
such service here as yet. But on my second visit the chaplain read a letter to
us from Shirley. Where She as reached out the warden for permission to initiate
some sort of outside facilitation of Buddhist support.
I wish to thank Shirley, Danny,
Vernerable Zhong, and IBS founder Master Hueiguang. I am also thankful to the
Desert Lotus Sangha at Chuckawalla State Prison to help my in my daily
practice.
With Metta
Joseph (Guan Wu)
