December 12&Zen - - TWO Announcements this month...


 Dear 12 & Zen Followers,

#1] Here is the Step and Koan we’ll be working with.

 

Step 12: Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and practice these principles in all our affairs.  

 

Koan:

 

Deep autumn—
my neighbor,
how does he live, I wonder?

 

Matsuo Bashō, d. November 28, 1694, Osaka, Japan

#2] This month’s koan (and later commentary) will be my final posting. 

 

I turn 80 later this month. There are no medical issues that I know of, hiked 7.1 miles in the park today; but still, I’m slowing down on several fronts. More later in a few weeks in the commentary.


Bill K.
