All-female author issue of Shambala Sun.

Got the March issue the other day.
Had a good discussion in it with Eve Ensler and bell hooks. Also Pema Chodron, the most popular Buddhist nun in the U.S.

I have gotten tired of the all-male-baby-boomer issues with Ram Dass, and others and I welcome the female perspective that women are equally capable of attaining enlightenment.

I don't have a sangha anywhere near and I am terribly isolated.
