Recently, our sangha was invited to bless the “home” of the wild mustangs of Windhorse Relations. We had never been asked to bless a house before, and so this was a beautiful beginning, and a time when Tahri Marpo Ling and Windhorse Relations forged a new relationship. A herd of wild mustangs lives on theContinue reading “Blessing the Horses’ Home”

Sojong on Halloween
