hello hello,
as of tomorrow i will be going on a Buddist retreat for 10 days.
I'm thinking of it, as a wee challenge,yet another way to test myself(and mayby disintoxicate a little.)
One of the rules in this retreat is respecting noble silence.
To spend 10 days with no words,computer,phone,books,music,tv,wife,kids,work,etc sounds like an experience worth trying.
I will be waking at four in the morning and meditating all the day,with a break for a strictly vegetarian lunch at midday, and some fruit and tea at five in the evening for dinner.Bed and lights out are at nine thirty.
Going in a fat slob weighing in at 88.2 kilos,but bet you any money i'll be out as top model material.
Anyone interested in reading up here is a link.

After the 8th of March i'll post back and let your know how it went.
Cheers,Ed
