I'd also like to join you on zoom meetings, although I am a part of the rest of the world...

Oh, very interesting statement about refuge in oneself, as an island! Never heard of it from anyone's teachings! Thank you! Especially it resonates to me, as in my own explanations, talking about Dhamma I use the word Island!.. So it only reassures me I'm on the right way of understanding!
