This posted to Tibetologist Glenn Mullin‘s YouTube page today:

Mongolian longsong (urtyn duu) written in 1595 for the Mongolian enthrownment of the young 4th Dalai Lama, whom was born in 1589. The song was saved from the Communist purges, and is performed by, the Mongol master longsong singer D. Tuvshin Jargal, recorded and presented by Glenn Mullin.

My friend Bill Hulley, an exemplary caregiver and one of the sharpest guys I know, has started a new blog called bamboo tube. Bill writes of the new blog:

What is this blog going to be about? Good question. I am not sure yet. Some of it will appear in the intersection of worldviews that may or may not intersect: radical behaviorism as seen through the lens of contextualism and Vajrayana Buddhist practice. This is the crossroads I am exploring in my psychotherapy practice and the writing here will reflect what I am discovering there.

I also imagine that I will be sharing what I am learning about the nature of mindfulness, acceptance and change, both in my counseling work and my meditation practice. My writing in this vein will be experiential and personal though I won’t avoid writing about theory when theory needs to be written about.

You may know Bill from his excellent and now defunct blog possibility of fire. I think a lot of him and look forward to following his thoughts at bamboo tube.

At their website, elephant journal has a slightly updated version of my “10 Worst Buddhist Movie Characters” post from a couple weeks ago. Check it out here.
