 Dear spiritual family,
Blue Cliff in autumn is very beautiful. Forests are adorned by the ripening leaves. Today, starting at 11 a.m., retreatants from everywhere will come to attend a retreat with the topic Sitting in the Autumn Breeze. A great number of people signed up, but we could not accommodate all of them, so we had to turn down many people. Our monastic brothers and sisters and lay friends feel very bad about this, but there is no other way. This is the first largest retreat in Blue Cliff. Everyone wants to come practice with the Sangha and, at the same time, "check out" the new monastery.
On the afternoon of October 9th 2007, Time Magazine came to interview Thay about the events that have been taking place in Burma and about the issue on global warming.

This sheet offers a number of steps we can take to reduce the impact of our ecological footprint on the
Earth. Please look over this and, if you feel inspired, commit to a few or more of them by marking the
blank with a “?” check. If you already are currently practicing the step, mark an “X” on the blank. When
you are done please copy your commitments onto a piece of paper that you can carry with you as a
reminder. We will collect this sheet so that we may post your commitments on a website, allowing other
practitioners and friends to see and to be inspired by your actions.
I, _______________________________________________, commit to:
