Writing/editing opportunity for making merit
Posted: Fri Mar 22, 2013 7:45 pm
Hello all.
The venerable Buddharakkhita Bhikkhu, a Ugandan monk, is currently in the end stages of producing a book on Buddhism and the environment. He is not a native English speaker and thus his writings, while very wise, are in need of editing. I have been working with him this last couple months to put it together, and it is almost complete. However, I am headed to a monastery next week and will be without access to a computer. The book may be done, but I want to make sure that, if he adds more material or needs any changes made, there is someone who is able to help with the project while I am gone. It would mostly be formatting a word document and maybe editing or proofreading. Please let me know if you're interested. A background in editing or word processing would be helpful. The Ugandan Buddhist Centre is a great organization and it would be a tremendous act of merit to help Bhante Buddharakkhita put this together.
Here's a short video of the Venerable speaking about the Dhammapada. He is truly a wise teacher!
Thanks,
Jonah
