  Boston area:
        The Friends of the Western Buddhist Order will begin a sitting
        group in the Boston, Mass. area this summer. I'm forwarding this
        information on behalf of Vajramati, the Order member who will be
        leading the group. (He's not online.) We haven't set up a
        schedule yet, but I thought you might want to add his name and
        phone number as a Boston area contact person.
                Vajramati
                phone #: 617-576-7345
                Western Buddhist Order
        Vajramati is associated with Aryaloka, a WBO center in
        Newmarket, NH. He is now living in Cambridge. When we get more
        specific information I'll pass it along.
