A Proposal to fund the Zen Alumbrella
The Zen Alumbrella promises to be a vitally important service, not only for Zen practitioners but for all who are seriously involved in the spiritual quest.
Huston Smith
10-29-05 - This is a proposal I just sent out to a foundation which has generously supported my work in the past. I'm going to be sending a version of this to other potential funders. Because I've been working on this and doing some odd jobs to pay bills, I haven't put much on cuke.com recently and so when I just looked for something I could put up quickly, I thought, why not share this proposal with the loyal readers of cuke.com? So here it is reworded in a few places to take out references to the foundation I sent it to and also not presented on paper. Any suggestions warmly welcomed, as are generous contributions. - DC
