The Breath Connects All Realms

[avad]

This morning I searched for and found a beautiful Temple of Buddha on SecondLife and my avatar and I meditated together for the first time. It was wonderful. The meditation script is pretty amazing...the slowww and subtle breathing movements...the eyes...I felt myself relax right into it just watching her/me. This is something quite profound when you think of it. Such a learning tool..

Landmarked this spot as a favorite to return to often. My sound wasn't working but there is even a spinning tibetan prayer wheel near the buddha with Om Mani Padme Hum as a 'sound'! I can't wait to return and hear it. This Temple is located in Kasba.

SecondLife is an ever-growing, ever-changing 3D immersive virtual world that is Completely built by the users themselves...It's less a 'game' than an open-ended social space...there are events and classes that you can attend in avatar form...or just fly around and explore...
The part that interests me most is that what it becomes is up to us.

For a skilled techie one like yourself, I'd refer you to this page:
secondlife.com/developers.php (http://secondlife.com/developers.php)
That's all beyond me, but I and others get to experience whatever is built there!

And here's a good post about SL on Tony Walsh's blog
