Understand
Read the short introduction and the beliefs page. Learn what the Continuance claims, and what it deliberately does not claim.
A simple first path
Understand, read, try, ask. Then decide for yourself whether there is anything here you want to continue.
Read
Begin with selected passages rather than trying to consume the entire sacred library at once.
Practice
Try one or two simple practices: silence, reading, gratitude, remembrance, conversation or service.
Decide
Ask difficult questions. Meet people if you wish. Belonging is an invitation, not a conversion funnel.
