Ji Jang Bosal!

He was a great Bodhisattva. Just this weekend I met one of his students 
from Taiwan, and I have a friend studying right now at Dharma Drum (as 
part of a UVA exchange program).

May he hurry back and continue to help us find our way! But if he really

wants a break he has certainly earned it.
