Yes, I am an avid reader; must have read over a hundred (literally) books on Theravada, Mahayana, Yogacara, Upanishads, Silent Illumination, Jhanas, Meditation, and Zen (where I’ve finally landed, as it were). I’ve also written several novels and novellas along with a couple of scores of short stories.
Retired as well, these days, and while I still write I now focus on the Path — to quote Leonardo da Vinci, “While I thought that I was learning how to live, I have been learning how to die.” An amazing lesson…
David Loy is a recent “find”, quite an amazing character.
