			<title><![CDATA[8. Futon]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[Did I mention mats? We also make them with a futon filling. This was last week, when I had to rip up some to make meditation mats. It’s nice and soft material to handle, although it makes people sneeze a lot. Actually, it’s like handling a ten metres long flat sheep. Incidentally, this is the Center’s meditation Hall.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This is where I work. This is the state that I like to call “reasonably tidy”. You can see the empty cushions in front and an empty meditation mat. Also of course the boxes that I’ve prepared, because I tend to pack things immediately after completion. This is to maintain the state called “reasonably tidy”!

In the back you can see some pictures of Padmasambhava, who brought Buddhism to Tibet and is especially revered in the Nyingma lineage.

Notepads are all important in my work. I’ve actually learned to pay attention to them.]]></description>
