[close] Buddhist book club with a pragmatic approach

[close] Sangha is a pali word meaning "assembly" or "gathering". It is the community established by Buddha. This group is here to serve as an online gathering place for Buddhists, questioners, those interested in the Eightfold Path, and those on it already. Please feel free to begin any discussions and add any books with some ties to Buddhism.
