This is no longer just a mondo between Sabine and you...

Question

I am writing to thank Sabine, to thank you, Master Kosen, and
to thank the two men practicing Islam for your expressions of
compassion. I will share what I feel; that will be my question.
Please tell me, Master, whether you agree with me (it is a little long,
but I cannot make it shorter):



This is no longer just a mondo between Sabine and you. There is also
a mondo between Sabine and these two men, and one between them and you, Master.
Through her account, Sabine makes this mondo interactive.



Thank you to Sabine: first, she submits her own answers to you in mondo,
in the form of questions—but aren’t they already answers? Then
she demonstrates through her experience and practice (not in theory)
that she practices and lives true religion, beyond religions (connecting and
being connected). And, like her brothers, she bears witness that there is no God but God.

Thank you to them, the two men in question, who respond to Sabine’s
sisterhood by behaving as two brothers to her (and to us),
enriching her practice with theirs, and vice versa.

Thank you, Master Kosen, for acting as a true master to Sabine and
a true brother to her, to them, and to us, by correcting Sabine’s posture
just a little, just enough. You are with her, behind
her, throughout this mondo, even though you were not present in that café.
That is what I feel: you are helping her and all of us.

But… weren’t you all, at that moment—she, they, and you, Master—
being guided? Thank you.
