Monday: Up late last night, so slept until 11. Up, shower, a brief sitting and over to KKC. Heard from Tsunma-la that Ribur Rinpoche passed away last night.
"Born in Kham, Tibet, Rinpoche is one of the last of his generation to study with the great Pabongka Rinpoche, the author of Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand. A brief biography and photograph of Rinpoche are on the FPMT website at http://www.fpmt.org/teachers/ribur.asp."
Filled water bowls, dodging around a picture and some candles set out in his memory. The center has been reorganized a little. Heard Hln's voice from the kitchen but didn't say hello.
Back home, mom had left me a friendly message on my cell phone. Also, two panicked messages from work. I sent them an email saying I'd be in a bit later. Cut my morning routine short a bit towards this end. Morning practices. Then, removed the green sheet we'd been using as a tablecloth, and put it in the washing machine. In to work, driving across town.
When I arrived, no real problem existed. I checked some code over with RT, which he had put in to fix a bug of my doing. Worked on some other bugs with the rest of the day. Watched the rest of the SJ keynote while things built. Headed home around 9:30.
Back at the ranch, spoke with MB's parents a bit. MB made some lunches while I practiced guitar. Right hand feeling like shite. Working on a new piece... sort of a bossa-nova. Hung with MB a bit, then down basement. Exercise, some web, and now a few concluding practices.
