Narrative by Ann Cason

I am very pleased to let you know that a new narrative by Ann Cason is now available on the 'aging page' of Shambhala.org. The narrative describes the last days of one of our most respected practitioners, Ruth Astor, and the care circle that formed around her.
The link to the narrative is:

Ann Cason, who was an important part of that circle is herself one our lineage treasures in the area of aging, having dedicated her life to working with the frail elderly in the vision of enlightened society. Ann's book, Circles of Care, is a classic and everyone interested in aging in the context of Shambhala should read it.
