Articles - Written in the Sand
All Pura Vidya articles are "Written In The Sand" meaning impermanent, always changing. The ideas and views only reflect the author's thoughts in the moment it was written and should never be considered as truth. Instead, they are what we've learned from our experiences, what has worked for us. These writings do not depict the "right way", but merely "a way". We encourage you to share your way, your ideas and thoughts in the Pura Vidya Forum.
