Mitra
I have been a Mitra for a few years now and find my spiritual development constantly refreshed by the structure of the Margha Program and by an ever-deepening appreciation for the compassion and wisdom practices we explore.
Every year, it’s a delight to newly experience the sense of sangha that emerges through working with my co-Mitra and our current group of mentees. I feel that the Margha program is a true collaboration in that we all learn from one another as we share our respective spiritual journeys.
