There is nothing so uniquely human as the meeting of minds in friendy intellectual debate. It's both art and combat. It's both ballet and kung fu. Sadly it's also very rare in our society. We delicate our debates to talking heads on TV and avoid the difficult conversations in our daily lives. We use this very site to seek out people with similar opinions to avoid contact with dissenting views. This trend has left the air time to the extremists. The purpose of this group is not to get peop …

… The views of the Buddhist schools versus Vedanta schools of philosophy concerning the truths of reality and being or becoming seem to express opposite extremes, so the two Dharmas (Sanatana Dharma vs. Buddha Dharma) tend to have philosophical differences and debates when they come together. And yet they both have similar traditions, and comparable practices and goals. I am personally involved in a group that incorporates Buddha's teachings but is a lineage that is very much based upon Hindu or …
