Produktbeschreibung
Rev. Louis Serio was diagnosed with Brain Cancer and reflected on his life that would be ended soon and wrote his challenges and his memories and reflections of his life that has been shortened. As a Chaplain, he had widened and deepened his understanding of the stories that we all tell about who we are and what small role we each play in the wider human communities. In his training and study of various schools of Zen Buddhism over the past thirty-five (35) years, he takes solace in the concept of karma. The ripple effects of our daily actions are like stones tossed into a koi pond. The ripples go out in all directions, affecting many beings and the environment. He likes the Image of his legacy touching so many individual patients, students, clergy, hospital leaders, and colleagues (that he may never meet). He invites his readers to take and use whatever is helpful from this material and feel free to dismiss or disregard anything that is not helpful to us.
