What brought me to practice

Reading Herman Hesse – Siddartha. Alternative politics/psychology etc. Erich Fromm, Marcuse – One Dimensional Man
An image of the Buddha on a poster
Being confirmed in C of E. Discussing with others spirituality in our lives – and a minister who encouraged us
Childhood experience of driving in the dark: meditative
Being a weekend hippy – purple flares, LSD – long thread linking to earth.
Living in Zimbabwe - the people took a spiritual life for granted.
