I want to let you know how much Daily Zen means to me. I look forward to it everyday. The words of those ancient Zen masters are so deep and moving that I am often pulled out of a non-beneficial mind state just by reading them. The messages are so beyond the  words. They go right to the heart of life. Thank you very much for sharing them  with
us all.

I am an older person just learning
computer.  I want to add my thanks to you for your daily readings and articles.  They mean so much to me.  I send many cards out I just love them.
Your site is very deeply appreciated!

The readings are a blessing too and the
e-cards, that let us communicate sensitive thoughts and feelings in such a beautiful and detached way, are a joy. Daily Zen is an oasis of tranquility, truth and refined beauty in a world
that sorely needs it, and I am sure it is a great power for good.

Daily Zen always lifts my spirits. You are right about us being a community.

I just wanted to tell you that Daily Zen has made a difference in my  life, it is one of many zen influences as well as other Buddhist  influences....
 The Zen cards are the best, and are the way I found out about  you.  Please keep them up...

While I may not always make it to Temple to sit my Toronto Sangha, I always have Daily Zen with me on my PDA.

Of course, I have saved my favorites & often find myself going to them when I have a moment to spare for myself. I find myself going back to
Sho-do-ka - Song of Realization
Yoka-daishi  (d.713) when I seek clarity of mind and simplicity of thought.

I have a rewarding, but stressful, job that requires
me to spend most of my day at the computer. It's always a pleasant break
to open up your messages and experience a bit of calm.

 

Jeff

I am one who deeply and sincerely appreciates your site. It is my home page. It helps
me to stay in a "Zen Place" every day. I would be crushed if the site was ever closed. Thank you so much!

Zen Monthly articles have been great company and a loyal friend for me and my friends when we were in the times of confusion. It has deeply woven into the fabric of our lives. For many of us, the monthly readings are not only inspirational, but continue to remind us that the Buddha's Dharma is always current, worthwhile, and instructive in our self-centered and busy lives, as it was for the ancient masters and students of Zen....

I appreciate your newsletter and ahhed/oohed at the art with loved ones. The newsletter helped me make Zen learning fun! Quite frankly, it's neat chanting  at the computer screen, visualizing all that awesome energy joining with all the other readers.

 

Sally

I have just found you in the last few months, and I love to go to the Zendo for just a few minutes.  It helps me stay centered and relaxed, and its nice
to think others may be in the "room" with me.

I like to read the writings, too.  You add so much to my life with Daily Zen. I appreciate it!

Judy

Daily Zen has been an oasis of sanity for me for the past three years.

 

Cliff

I appreciate Daily Zen;  I have sent several Zen cards blessing my friends and relatives with the beautiful artwork.  I hope to have at least a couple of your inspiring posters up on my office wall before long.
Thank you so much for the Daily Quotes as well.  I was so inspired by a recent quote that I wrote a song for it on my guitar.
