I am currently writing an essay on my recent visit to Israel. I first visited Israel in the very early 1990’s and until around 2007 came twice a year for two weeks each visit.

Since 2007, I have been coming once a year for 24 days to offer the Dharma.

I estimate I have made about 40 visits to Israel and about 20 visits to Palestine.

I will post the essay on the blog in the next week or two.
