    Purely by accident. Was out exploring, when some strangely dressed fellow with a dog came plodding along in the other direction. He appeared to be in a state of thought, although I didn't realise this at the time - and now I feel guilty for intrerrupting his thinking!

    Anyway, we chatted for quite a while, and he seemed friendly enough. He explained they live in a small dwelling at the end of the valley, and basically twice a year they have a bit of a get together and all meditate.

    He had an unusual name like Dijikilan or some such - probably not like that but I've a hopeless memory. I thought this was Welsh at first, until he spelt it and then I realised it couldn't have been. It was then that he explained it was the name he was given when he was ordained as a monk.
