1 thing regularly met while wandering these last 2 years was families interested in Buddhism but with no-place-to-go. So.....now....THERE IS A PLACE to-go..........Buddha Mind ers
UPDATE - 7th July 2003
  • I have established the framework for a community portal.
  • This means (those who want) can have their own pages to add, edit, etc.
  • There will be general sections to which you can all contribute.
  • A calendar of (global?) events; one for each continent?

  • There has been a lot of interest - thanks for all your email. Progress is slow but steady.
  • Info sheet = answer a few questions. This helps me and gives you all an idea of who, what, where: HERE
  • What is it?
    A DYNAMIC focal point for young peoples, families + groups (involving y'peeps) - i.e. Buddha Minders.
    It requires an ACTIVE enthusiasm to share your common interest in Buddhism.
    The emphasis is on people presenting what they are DOING as a result of this interest -- and,
    other people RESPONDING to this presentation - either through the site or directly with other B'mers
    A few general principles and guidelines ....

      FEED BACK
    The results of any activity will be fed back to the site for collective viewing. Hear the song they sang, watch the play they did, see the drawings, the craft, the model, the mandala, the stupa, read the stories and poems .... etc. This way there will be a process of collective learning - through each other's successes (and failures).

    There are lots and oodles of things and ways in which you can make it all happen. The easiest thing you could do is to email me and express an interest - either in principle or around a particular area. Do that here
