[Joyce Bonafield]

I read Armstrong's book this spring and enjoyed it very much...it would make a good dialogue.   -Joyce

>Dear Colleagues,
>Is anyone reading or taking part in a 
  discussion of Karen Armstrong's book, Twelve Steps To A Compassionate  Life?
>Karen writes, "Do we want to succumb to our reptilian brain, 
  when we have seen for ourselves what can happen when hatred, disgust, greed, 
  or the desire for vengeance consume entire groups?  In our perilously 
  divided world, compassion is in our best interest.  To acquire it, 
  however, will demand an immense effort of mind and heart."
>I am considering 
  this book for our Seekers group at the UCC in Holyoke, MA.
>I would like to 
  dialogue with anyone working on compassion.
