This issue of Dharma Life explores the creating of Spiritual Community or Sangha. It begins with communication, as our ability to understand and appreciate others for themselves is what makes us
human.
Friendship
is vital to the spiritual community, argues Subhuti. Friends on the path
- as well as teachers or students - can spur and support our growth.
From college days to the Indian plains, Padmaprabha
and Taraka's lives have interwoven for 17 years. They tell
Vajrasara
how their friendship has been forged on a love of the
Truth.
Gil Fronsdel is an innovative teacher in the Insight
Meditation Movement.
Vishvapani
met him in Palo Alto, California, where students are forming a
network of friendship around him.
