Listen "Spiritual Community with guest Daniel Symes"
Episode Synopsis
My childhood friend Daniel Symes joined me on the podcast to talk about spiritual communities.
Daniel has been my friend since I was 11 years old and he's a member of pagan and freemason communities. We discussed what those communities, and Buddhism, do well and also where they struggle. I talked some, but not much, about my experience at a temple I used to attend called the Rime Center. He talked some about his experience with the pagan communities: Camp Gaea and Gaia Community (and I marveled at the fact that there are two pagan communities in Kansas City with essentially the same name). And we also talked about semi-spiritual communities like Freemasonry and Scouts BSA.
And we talked about Fountain City Meditation, which I think is a project but may actually be a community.
