Dorothy Iannone's Buddhist Devotion to Unconditional Love
Posted on 04:00 by the great khali

By Noa Jones
Born in Massachusetts in 1933, [Dorothy] Iannone always had spiritual inclinations. She was raised Catholic, but eventually came into conflict with her childhood tradition because she could not understand the church's shunning of erotic love. Primed by the haikus of R. H. Blyth during her 1962 stay in Kyoto, Japan, Iannone received a formal introduction to the dharma through a close artist friend who had been a student of Dudjom Rinpoche. Buddhism became a permanent fixture in her life after she attended a retreat in Cornwall with Sogyal Rinpoche in 1985. In the interview, Iannone speaks about the influence of the dharma on her work, the spiritual journey involved, and, as she approaches 80, her thoughts on death and dying. [link]
