It's deliberate and structure …

Animals know no borders! In poor neighborhoods of Lima, the dogs and cats often outnumber the people. They roam the streets unspayed and unneutered, eating from the garbage and reproducing without constraint. Contrary to what seems like neglect, we have found that these dogs and cats are beloved pets, but owners have limited resources. At the same time, research on the diseases carried by animals is underfunded. Our goal is to set up a free or low-cost spay/neuter clinic, assist the public in th …

The ultimate freedom is to have a completely clear and free mind. The human mind is always changing and is always trying to add more desirable experiences. There is no end to this addition. The way to find peace and clarity is to know the real world, the True world, by subtracting the past that has been recorded and stored within the body and mind as pictures. There is nothing more valuable than one's mind. It shapes the entire world that one knows. Through subtracting in Maum Meditation the Uni …

And we can make new friends -- greyhound and human alike. Please note: This group is meant for greyhounds and their humans only, as greys typically get nervous around other dog breeds. We'll stick to walking in parks where the terrain isn't so bad until the winter thaws out a bit! Be sure to check out t …
