For two and a half thousand years the teachings of the Buddha have been passed on from \nteacher to student, shared between friends, and passed on from generation to generation. \nThis has been done in community, out of enthusiasm, compassion, and generosity. \nThese teachings and their potential for profound transformation, both personal and \ncollective, are now starting to take root globally.\n\nAt this pivotal moment, we are confronted with a choice: a choice between allowing \nthese teachings to become another item in the spiritual marketplace or to keep with \nthe traditions that have passed these teachings to us and ensure that they are taught \nwith integrity, effectiveness, and in a spirit of open hearted, enthusiastic generosity.\nAt Open Sangha Foundation we are creating, nurturing and supporting a community of \npractitioners of Buddhadhamma, students and teachers, who are committed to ensuring \nthese teachings flourish in the 21st Century without succumbing to the market paradigm \nand the various hidden barriers built into that system.<\/pre>\n<\/h6>\n
