Dear Sangha Member,
The Chinese proverb, “may you live in interesting times,” has never seemed so relevant to me. Yes, we live in interesting times, to be sure, maybe even a little scary, at times, but also filled with opportunity.
Many of us look at the Infinite Smile Sangha as just such an opportunity for spiritual growth and community. As interesting times seem to destabilize us, increasingly the Sangha offers us a way of meeting our lives in truly constructive ways. So while technology allows for us to know more about our circumstances at ever-increasing speed, it also allows for our teacher, Michael McAlister, to share his teachings, and our work as a spiritual community, with thousands of people from more than 120 countries across the globe.
But this can only happen because of the generosity shown by those touched by Michaels secular Buddhist teachings. To those of you whove found value in Infinite Smile and feel that these teachings, as well as our work as a community, seem to make the world feel a little less crazy, were asking for your financial support.
Please donate to Infinite Smile in order to help keep the Infinite Smile Sanghas work thriving. Any amount will help. If you could send a check to the address below or click here in order to use your credit or debit card.
Take care and have a great holiday season.
Thank you,
M
