I am home alone and this has given me time to set up this blog.
Most of my daily activities are routine and of little interest to anyone. However, I have compiled a lesson book on Buddhism which is unusual and possibly of interest to some, it was certainly interesting to me in the time it took to prepare, and now in review it is a pleasure to scan parts every now and then. This is available upon request by email file transfer.
I have prepared several unpublished collections of poetry on: nature, love, personal transformation and of course personal poetry shared with Libby.
In the past I have written four books, most recently the -Buddhist Sutra, before that -Frame of Reference, more than ten years ago -Jack and Lucky, and almost ancient history -The New Trojan Horse. I wrote these books with the intention of sharing them, and that is in part what I am doing with this blog, sharing my ideas and my life.
Today for excitement, I will probably go out and trim the hedge and do some pruning.
Poems, teachings of Buddhism, anecdotes, travelogues and other humorous comments.
About Me
- Irv Jacob
- I used to be a shy and retiring sort, although recently I coordinated a "Sunday Service" about Buddhism. It was well received, I spoke about "Misunderstandings about Buddhism." I was accused of being a "Sage on the Stage" by way of insult, which I denied, but now I have decided to claim this as a brand. Now available: poems, Canto Kusala, about Buddhist teachings, and two books based on Buddhist teachings from the rational tradition. An email file copy of these is available to anyone upon request. I am teaching as a second career, now a substitute here in Pullman, WA, and otherwise out to pasture. I do a lot of volunteer work, including for the local Literacy Council, the Food Bank, and trustee for the Unitarian U. Church. I do remodeling and fixing up around the house, keep busy with landscaping, counting California Quail and running errands. I like to travel, and visit grandchildren and their various parents too, and it seems like we get around somewhere about every other month.
