A compilation of writings on celibacy and the spiritual life by contemporary Buddhists.
Our friend Suvarnaprabha (1963-2013) from San Francisco has just passed away. She had been living with advanced stage cancer for the past couple of years and writing the most amazing blog about it:
crapivegotcancer.blogspot.com/
We'll be publishing the book of the blog here on Issuu and at thebuddhistcentre.com itself.
Some months ago she took the step of becoming an Anagarika within the context of the Triratna Buddhist Order - someone who commits herself fully to a life of stillness, simplicity, contentment and celibacy. Here she collects some of her own thoughts on the subject, and other people's writings that inspired her to make such a declaration in the face of her own mortality.
