Our thoughts, prayers, and practice are with those who have been and will be affected by Hurricane Gustav, as well as those displaced, injured, or killed by the terrible flooding in India and Nepal.

If you would like to help the American Red Cross with their efforts on the Gulf Coast in preparation for Gustav, you can make a donation at their website here. In addition, you can contribute to relief efforts in India and Nepal through UNICEF–just click on the respective country’s name.

According to the Agence France-Presse, His Holiness the Dalai Lama will be discharged from a Mumbai hospital tomorrow. Four days ago, he was admitted with “abdominal discomfort.” Before that, he was diagnosed with exhaustion and cancelled appointments for the next three weeks. Speaking about the impending hospital discharge, spokesman Tenzin Takhla said, “His Holiness is feeling much better.” Get some good rest, Your Holiness!
