Unaffiliated Buddhist

Tynette Deveaux announces that the upcoming Spring 2010 issue of Buddhadharma: The Practitioner’s Quarterly will be devoted to “unaffiliated Buddhists.”

Do you have a meditation practice and follow the Buddhist teachings but don’t belong to a Buddhist community, or sangha, and don’t have a Buddhist teacher? If so, you’re part of a growing community of unaffiliated Buddhists in North America. In the Spring 2010 issue of Buddhadharma: The Practitioner’s Quarterly we’ll be focusing on unaffiliated Buddhists and we’d like to hear from you.

I’ve crossed paths with quite a few bloggers who identify themselves as go-it-alone Buddhists or denizens of regions nearly devoid of Buddhism, so this upcoming issue should receive some welcome. I’m interested, at the very least!
