This marks the last issue of our paper and ink Mountain Record: The Zen Practitioner's Journal, which was first published in the earliest years of Zen Mountain Monastery. Finding unique, inspiring writing from our thirty-five years of publication was not a challenge, but deciding what to include was. This scavenger hunt brought out voices and perspectives which have stood the test of time. Each piece was written by a Mountains and Rivers Order student or teacher, some with added notes from the authors. All speak in some way about the path of practice-meeting each other in our awakening bodhicitta while striving to live well and bring good into the world.
