Welcome to our newest quarterly newsletter! Several weeks ago, Adyashanti announced his retirement from teaching at the end of October to the sangha and community at large. This newsletter is a special tribute to Adya’s profound tenure as our head teacher at Open Gate Sangha.
Please enjoy the photos throughout this issue, along with the delightful and poignant slide show of Adya through the years (be sure to turn on the sound!), and several heartful messages from students in response to Adya's retirement announcement.
We hope you will join us for his last free live broadcast on October 4 (details within). Also included in this newsletter is an inspiring article by Mukti in which she illustrates her vision of furthering Adya’s teachings (and how you can help with this), as she moves forward as head teacher for Open Gate Sangha.
