Introduction

Editors' Notes

By Barbara Gates, Wes Nisker

 
 

 

First efforts. First issue. We hope you enjoy it and find something useful. Our most difficult task so far has been choos­ing a name. We started with Inquiring Mind and went from there through The Changing Times, This Time Around, In­sight Out, The Dukkha Express, et al. We finally came back to Inquiring Mind, realizing that the name was seeking itself. . . .

We plan to publish one more issue this year, in the fall. . . . Inquiring Mind has only just begun to inquire.
