On the mistake concerning advertising of the wrong scheduled time, it would be pompous of me to declare the truth that we all make mistakes as if informing the ignorant, but I did want to add that in some small way as a member of this Sangha I feel I own a small share of the error. I saw the advertised time well in advance, noted the two hour difference from the usual, wondered what the reason might be, but didn’t bother to seek clarification or question if it might be mistaken, imagining I might be perceived as a fool or a nuisance, all self created perceptions. I fell into a familiar habit of treating my experience of reality with passivity, like a consumer of entertainment, wishing to fulfill my desires to consume but not be noticed in my consumption. Perhaps there’s a lesson in this for me. Thank you.
