The monist/woo strain in Western #Buddhism seems to correlate with dysfunctional organizations and student-teacher dynamics.
@Meaningness Well, woo in the US has been a strong current as far back as the Theosophists. Why are they gravitating to Buddhism now?

@St_Rev Yes and there's been woo in Buddhism from its beginning. Getting rid of it might help Buddhism function in the future. -
@Meaningness That's Stephen Batchelor's project, I dunno how much progress he's made organizationally. -
@St_Rev Yes and@SecularBuddhist 's and others. They seem to be making some progress! -
@Meaningness@St_Rev@SecularBuddhist Progress *is* happening, our site is founded by skeptics. Latest info -- http://secularbuddhism.org/2012/10/08/new-logo-and-site-design-for-the-sba/ … -
@secularbuddhist I love the new logo & design! Congrats on the 501(c)(3) progress also. And (probably most important) the practice circle.
