We scattered Jacky Patricia Lambert’s ashes on the afternoon of 16 July 2025.

I would like to share a poem written by a Chinese buddhist nun, Venerable FaYuan (601-63) in the Sui and Tang Dynasties:

This body without a self
Can be compared to floating duckweed.
This body with its troubles
Is exactly like a leaf in the wind.
This cycle of life and death
Is just like that of night and day.
