Conclusion
My books seem to be getting smaller all the time. I tell myself that this is because I"m more concise. Probably this is merely a symptom of my inherent laziness. Other writers turn out books with hundreds of pages; perhaps they simply have more to say. I tried to pad this one with lots of extra punctuation, but the BIONA Editors will undoubtedly remove the superfluous additions. Before I end this book, I would like to point out that you can be supportive of the Dharma work that is being done within the prison system.
If you would like to support the growing Dharma movement in prisons, there are practical ways you can assist the people doing this work. To help prisoners in the United States you can contact:

Betty Lu Buck is the founder of the Buddhist Inmate Sangha and is doing wonderful work. You can send her money, dharma books, dharma tapes, dharma magazines or dharma equipment and she will see that grateful inmates receive them and make proper use of them.
You can help inmates all over the world, including the United States and Canada by supporting the organization I belong to, BIONA. If you wish to support the BIONA Prison Programs please contact:

{These numbers are subject to change because BIONA grows larger all the time and then requires more space, however, you can always find the current numbers on the website, which is always: www.buddhistinformation.com}
BIONA Accepts Dharma Books, which are then promptly mailed to inmates. You can send money by arrangement if you talk to my teacher, Stephen L. Klick, provided that you make it clear that it is for the inmate program. Otherwise, BIONA does not accept donations. You can also send gift certificates for local bakeries in care of "The Doughnut King," Bartholomew M. Klick.
I would like to dedicate any merit attained by the writing of this book for the sake of all sentient beings. My earnest prayer is that all beings become awakened and that they discover the path to peace and happiness. Nam Myoho Renge Kyo, Nam Myoho Renge Kyo, Nam Myoho Renge Kyo – May all beings benefit.
