I can't find the thread now - someone was asking about a 12 step program within the Buddhist focus. One just started in LA.

**NEW**LOS ANGELES: RECOVERY FROM ADDICTION IN A BUDDHIST CONTEXT. --The Buddhist Recovery Network-- will be holding its inaugural conference in Los Angeles, Oct. 9th-11th. It will be hosted by --Against the Stream Meditation Society--. Brochure: www.insightla.org/insights/.../index.asp Conference Info: www.buddhistrecovery.org/inaug...ce.htm

I wanted to pass the info along but now can't find which Tribe/person was asking about it.

    Hi,

    I have a book out called the 12-Step Buddhist. It will show anyone how to integrate the principles of recovery with the principles of Buddhism and Western psychotherapy. We use perspectives from Zen, Tibetan Buddhism, Voice Dialogs and more. This is the only book to discuss recovery and Tibetan Buddhism and it has many practical methods for deepening spiritual wisdom in recovery.
