Dana
A young girl learns about dana (donation or generosity). For Buddhists
the opportunity to give to the Sangha (monk community) is a blessing for
them.

Myanmar - Golden Land
Myanmar, previously known as Burma, is also called the land of gold. In January 2003 I went on a yatra with my Vipassana meditation teacher S N Goenka and about another 500 of his students. This is a pictorial account of that trip, which was a truly wonderful experience.

About Me
- Name: Ray Tomes
- Location: New Zealand
I am a kiwi (that means a New Zealander, not a fruit, flightless bird or stuff for cleaning your shoes).
I retired from computer software development to work on the "formula for the universe" based on a study of cycles in everything and developed a theory called the "Harmonics Theory". http://ray.tomes.biz - New Wobbly Universe blog - Just Thinking blog - My Stumbleupon stuff - http://www.cyclesresearchinstitute.org
I have also practiced Vipassana meditation since 1998 - a method to take out the mental garbage and come out of suffering. http://www.dhamma.org
