namaste all,
HDF has been busy with activity lately. Thank you all for making this happen.

I have been thinking of an idea for a while now and want to get your input.

What do you guys think of having a dedicated topic of discussion every month?

I want to start a list of topics that we can/should discuss and out of this list we pick one topic to talk about for a whole month. This topic then becomes sort of like a 'theme of the month' for HDF discussions. The topic could be anything from a tradition to a practice to a word in sanskrit.

The idea is that we use this theme to collect our energy and learn about that topic for the whole month. We can still continue with our adhoc discussions on other topics.

I would also like to encourage members to volunteer each month to get the discussion started. So essentially, we would have a volunteer member research the topic assigned to them and present it to the rest of the members of HDF.

I have some topics on my list already. I encourage you to submit your own ideas and name of the topic that you would like to research and present to the rest of the members. You can submit new topics by posting to this thread or by emailing me or via PM.

What do you guys think?

How about we start this 'theme of the month' with the new calendar year?

Looking forward to your feedback on this.
