We just had our lender refuse to REFINANCE our berm house at a lower interest rate. We bitched that they already held the mortgage and it was being paid off faster than required, and they said OH YEAH and relented. Not sure the issue, but make waves.

Comment on How do Buddhists reach nirvana? by Rene

We are already in nirvana. The true nature of reality is our true nature – the two are one – and this nature is love and compassion. My personal experience on the path is that the understanding of nirvana or enlightenment as something one must search for, reach, or do any activity to gain is misguiding. Of course meditation is a great tool but Nirvana is our true nature so the activity of searching for it through attachment to wanting it is part of Samsara. Much easier is it to let go on the path and know that you are already in nirvana when you stop reacting to karma. You are nirvana so be nirvana instead of trying to reach nirvana.

One problem with your blog; Fannie Mae will buy mortgages of Berm Homes. In their guide they have the following, “Mortgages secured by nontraditional types of housing—such as earth houses, geodesic domes, log houses, etc.—are eligible for delivery to us, provided the appraiser has adequate information to develop a reliable opinion of market value.” Likely your appraiser was just avoiding a difficult assignment.

Custom built homes are the best way to go in my opinion. That way you get exactly what you want from your new home and you won’t need to spend all of that extra money on remodeling.
