Where and how we live influences us every day. Home is where we most often look for our human needs to be met. Not only does it form the backdrop to all our activities, but it can provide opportunities for spiritual growth and human fulfilment.
Sanghadevi, a respected Buddhist teacher, suggests community living as a practical way to embody a vision of increasing generosity, kindness, and harmony. Drawing on her many years in Buddhist communities, she encourages us to engage with the frequent challenges we will encounter and speaks from her own experience of the joys of sharing. Living Together explores the essential ingredients of community living, including friendliness, cooperation, meaningful communication, and mutual vision.
Living with others who share our ideals can encourage us to practise ethics, awareness, and simplicity – all of which can lead us to true quality of life.
About the author Sanghadevi has lived in Buddhist communities for more than twenty-five years and is a senior member of the Western Buddhist Order.
