Dharma book reading group starts soon
A Tuwhiri dharma book reading group will meet on Zoom to go through What is this? Ancient questions for modern minds from November 2020 to February 2021, on the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month.
Anchoring this group will be Tuwhiri publisher and co-editor of Creative Dharma, a newsletter, Ramsey Margolis, and Suzanne Franzway, dharma practitioner and researcher in sociology.

Meetings are timed so that people from Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific can take part. Those of you in the Americas are likely to be sleeping when this group meets, but do get in touch if you’d like to be part of a dharma book reading group; with enough interest we could run a second group at a different time of day for people in other time zones.
NZD $40 (approx AUD $38, or 22 Euros, or GBP £20) is asked from those who want to take part. Use Paypal/VISA/Mastercard to deposit NZD $40 through paypal.com for heuristics@mac.com. In New Zealand, you can deposit NZD $40 directly into 02-1246-0675192-054.
At the end of the course, participants will have the opportunity to offer dana to Martine and Stephen Batchelor.
Limited to 12 people, go to https://www.tuwhiri.nz/etc/dharma-book-reading-group for more info. To reserve your place in this dharma book reading group send an email to ask@tuwhiri.nz.
