Thank you for creating this community and this wonderful "bubble" of weekly joy in what you write and the generosity that results. While it is all an interconnected, dependent arising, certainly without your heartfelt efforts this would not exist. A deep bow of gratitude .

I feel so blessed to be a part of this amazing community. Thank you David, for your generosity, your dedication, your teachings. Always with loving awareness. My warmest congratulations on 2 years.

I also want to say thank you to my fellow community members, who I am continually learning many wonderful things from. I have never been on social media, being shy and private, but this has been a very positive experience. I am uplifted and more dedicated to my practice, because this space exists. Much love to all.

Congratulations on your wonderful effort. I know the tenacity needed. In my case schools have been completed - hurrah- but now they need desks, chairs, teaching materials. We go on. It’s good to have inspiration from achievements like yours.

Congratulations David. I'm grateful that our paths have crossed. What seemed like an innocent act of finding The Art of Purring has lead me on a spiritual journey. I enjoyed the entire series and now am fullfilled every Saturday from reading your newsletter and learnimg about the dharma.

I'd like to share something that I would have once thought was a coincidence...but am now realizing that I am the benefactor of past good karma. I've practiced yoga for the past 15 years or so, on and off. During my last move, I found a new yoga studio and this one really resonates with me. I have made friends there, and get as much mental healing, as physical. Today is the 2 year anniversary of the studio, the same day I received your message about your anniversary. It made me smile to think that both of the avenues that give me a peaceful heart started at the same time. It must be karma!

Well done David! You have been the driving force behind all that has been achieved. We are merely riding on your coat tails or watching on as you slug it out in the ring. You have earned lots of brownie points! Or at least some good karma.

Not sure how it fits in with the space/time continuum, but I have heard it said that life is like a roll of toilet paper - the closer you get to the end, the faster it runs out! Hopefully you will clock up 10 years of Substack posts shortly and be able to take some long service leave!

It would be nice to think my meager efforts supporting you might be a cause to attain complete and perfect enlightenment, but I think I am happy with feeling warm and fuzzy that some souls are slightly better off thanks to your work. Congrats once again!

A heartfelt thank you David. I look forward to your weekly posts and offerings of wisdom. You explain the dharma in easily digestible bites, providing food for thought. It has certainly helped me to view the world differently. You are a profound gift to us subscribers which in turn benefits your wisely chosen charities. I enjoy seeing updates from them. 🙏

Dearest David,

Congratulations for these 2 years publishing. I am not surprised about it, you always publish something important for my growing as a person, as someone who wants to learn more about Tibetan Budishm.
