| Dharma Seeds is Insightful "Mark, I've read your excellent publication. I believe that there is an incredible need for a newsletter such as Dharma Seeds. Your newsletter appeals to an inordinate amount of faiths under the premise that meditation is a conduit for liberation and ultimately, freedom. How profound!. I found your publication, concise, unabashed, and quite insightful." A. Booth, Jim E. Hamilton Correctional Institution, Oklahoma |
Death Row Inmate Reads Dharma Seeds"Greeting! I'm a prisoner on death row. I've been down almost 15 years now. I was privileged to read Dharma Seeds when a friend passed it on to me. I'd like to receive my own copy of your newspaper. Please put me on your mailing list. I appreciate all you do. Thank you.." K. Marinelli, Pennsylvania |
| Dharma Seeds is Different "I recently came upon your journal and, I must say, I was impressed. I've seen a wide array of prison meditation magazines in the past 27 years but was mostly repulsed by them because they seemed to be forums for either whiners and/or the overly pompous. Neither assists us on our path. Dharma Seeds was different though. I found it informative and thought provoking, as well as acting as a mirror in which I could see, laugh at, and learn more about myself and this journey that I'm on. That's rather cool and stimulating. I was pleased by the variety of traditions represented in the articles. To find Father Keating next to Master Hu is fantastic and shows that the walls of sectarianism are finally coming down. The expressions may differ but the path is the same. Anyway, if you could please put me on your mailing list to receive Dharma Seeds. It's a journal I'd definitely like to continue reading. Keep up the great work and many blessings to you all. Namaste.." . F. Reinhart, Cross City Corr. Inst., Florida |
Dharma Seeds Uncommon Substance "Congratulations on producing a journal with uncommon substance. Though I hate to seem ungrateful, frequently publications aimed toward prisoners are starved for content of any consequence. Here's to your excellent efforts, may you continue to be inspired and illuminated by truth and selfless devotion. You definitely have brought the full course meal to a pot luck. Keep up the good work you do through Dharma Seeds." J. Yox, NCF, New Hampshire |
