The Constructive Force of Respect

As a student of Buddhism, I'm constantly reminding myself to show respect and be open to others. Practicing this, however, is another matter. I'm often allowing my ego to take control and limit the amount of respect I should give to others, as well as myself.

I've been examining why this happens so often. I suppose it's because I have trouble letting go of my ego. I let my needs and desires get in the way of  what should be a simple process of living.

Beginnings of Zen

I've been a student of Zen Buddhism for many years now. I'm a student at Zen Mountain Monastery for several years. Although I try to explain zen to my friends, I find it impossible. Explaining it is, after all, counter to what zen is.
I have, however, put together a small page on the beginnings of it. You can find it here

Chi Running Shoes

I'm promising myself that this summer, when school is out and all of my students are home with their parents, that I would learn to run. The problem with that is I have a damaged knee from a fall. I've been afraid to hurt it more. Then I read about ChiRunning.

Chi Running is based on the idea of using your chi when running. It trains you to use all of your body as one and be one with the energy around you. I'm reading the book by Danny Dreyer to understand how it works. It's more complex than it sounds, but also simpler than I expected. I'll let you know how I do. Until then I'll be looking for a comfortable pair of shoes for my Chi Running.

Caravan Canopy Oversize Zero Gravity Chair

It's Spring and it's time for me to relax outside. Enjoy the sun and cool breezes. I like taking it easy on weekends (okay, every day) and a zero gravity chair does the trick. It reclines fully and makes me doze in no time at all.

The Caravan Zero Gravity chair supports a big guy like me. I use it inside, too. It really does feel like what I imagine zero gravity to be.

Home Fireproof Safe

I'm not one to take chances. I'm the kind of person who sets three alarm clocks just in case one doesn't work! The same security goes into saving my valuable information. That's why I invested in a fireproof safe for my home.
I found more variations of safes than I ever imagined. I had to consider how long I wanted the safe to be resistant to fire (half an hour, an hour, and two hours seem to be the norm). I also had to think about how waterproof it should be. After all, longer burning fires require more water to put it out. Then I had to think about what was going into the safe. Some safes can keep papers secure, but allow media (computer information, cd's, etc.) to burn easily.
I've compiled a list of the best of the best. Click here to see it.

Space Saving Sound Bar Systems

I'm all set with my new tv. My wife, however, doesn't want me to set up my old speaker system. She told me to find something new and small. I searched high and low and discovered sound bar systems that are small enough to save space in the living room, but powerful enough to blow the roof off of the house. Best of both worlds!
I found several great sound bar systems, but one of my favorites has to be the Boston Acoustics TVee Model 25 Sound System, It has full sound and great depth. It fits wonderfully under my tv and lets me save enough space to hold all of my Blu Rays.
