[edit] Interviews

Who has deleted this interview? http://www.sinc.sunysb.edu/clubs/buddhism/dailylife/khong.html Please tell me why. Austerlitz 88.72.2.212 08:14, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

It's to be found following the link Number six. I put it again at link Number seven. I think it to be very important and that's why it should be given a title of its own. Austerlitz 88.72.2.212 08:43, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

• Thank you for adding this link. I put the link in the "external links" secion because it shouldn't have a heading of it's own. When folks delete things, usually it's because the way it's been added doesn't conform to wiki style guidelines, it's not a commentary on the quality of the information. Please be sure to take some time to read the "help" section on how to make additions. You also might want to consider registering and starting a member name. Often times when you don't log in, your additions may not be taken as seriously. Enjoy, and please continue to make additions to articles, it's the best way to learn!

[edit] Dharma teaching

Once Sister Chan Khong gave the following dharma teaching:

• i am blooming as a flower.
• i am fresh as a dew.
• i am solid as a mountain.
• i am firm as the earth.
• i am free.

I guess I cannot insert it until I have not found some source in the internet or within a book. Right?

[edit] To-do list

• The lead of this article needs to be expanded.
• Upgrade references
• Expand article with further references about activities during the Vietnam War
• Does there need to be more about current activities?
• Request peer review when the above points are completed.

More ideas for improvement? Nightngle 14:29, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] There is a film

Thich Nhat Hanh as well as Sister Chan Khong are part of this film One: The Movie (2005). Plot Summary says: "In a divided post 9-11 world, first-time filmmaker Ward Powers asks life's ultimate questions of world renowned spiritual leaders and ordinary people..." I think it is worth while watching. Can we add it to the mainpage, Nightngle?

I think it's a good idea - we can create a "Media" sub-section to the external links and put it there. Thanks! Nightngle (talk) 21:35, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Welcome! I put it there. You can refine or expand it of course. Austerlitz -- 88.72.29.169 (talk) 10:39, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
