Brief updates, links and other interesting news.
"What Makes You Not a Buddhist" translations, grant recipients in the news, and an inspiring article about giving.

The Mind Body Awareness Project, a KF Special Grant recipient, was featured in an article written by Alix Sharkey in a recent issue of Tricycle magazine.

• Rinpoche's book What Makes you Not a Buddhist has been translated into Greek by Ariadni Gerouki and published by Archetypo Editions in Thessaloniki, Greece. The book is reportedly selling very well in all the major bookstores in Greece and can also be purchased online. The book has also been translated into Romanian by Ana Precup and published by Editura Irecson in Bucharest, Romania. The Romanian title is Ce inseamna sa fii budist.

• We found this article about philanthropist Warren Buffet inspiring.

• Published by long-time students of Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche, Faces of Bhutan features "Beyond Space and Time" by Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche, an article on Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche's journey to Tigers Nest, and "American Buddhism" by Professor Robert Thurman.
