Parami offers an enthusiastic exploration of the earthy and ethereal details of everyday spiritual practice, especially within the framework of a sense of the 'collective'. Some great and pretty funny stories from early, would-be-revolutionary experiments with co-operative working ("The opiate of the masses has arrived!"), and some wise words from her subsequent experience of trying to square the circle of dealing with one's own individuality within a working sangha.

From the talk entitled Being an Individual Within a Collective Practice given at Windhorse:Evolution, once a large Buddhist team-based 'right livelihood' business based in the UK, 2003
