Welcome to the community!
You have safely arrived at Zenith Mountain, a space for sharing spiritual or religious text, practices, ideas and experiences. While much of this community is active on Discord, this is a place where we can interact with more detailed, long posts, books, and text. One of the key components of this forum is a hub for various text, especially new translation work being done by the community. This is an on going project and the forum will evolve and grow to meet the community needs.
Overall the rules are pretty simple, this is a space for growth and constructive engagement, and not a place for hostility and verbal abuse.
Guests (unregistered users) are allowed to post in the General Discussion section, all other sections are for members of the community. After registering navigate to your profile using the top navigation bar and set up your profile, change your avatar picture, join a group, and so on if you'd like.
The Forum Hub section is for general discussion, as well as important announcements and discussion about the forum operations. Additionally there is a section for members to introduce themselves as well as post personal updates; going on vacation, been away and returning, new life developments and the like.
In each of the sections, Buddhism, Zen, and Other Traditions, there is a Court Yard, Study Hall, and Library.
The Court Yard section is for casual discussions, debates, and fun. While most chatting and casual discussions can be done on discord or elsewhere, this section gives members a place to interact as well.
The Study Hall section is focused on questions and insights about study and practice. Topics can be long posts or short inquiries. However, unlike the Court Yard, topics in the Study Hall are focused on specific practice and study questions relevant to that category.
The Library section is specifically for resources to literature relevant to that category and long posts about specific practices or teachings. These Library sections are restricted to knowledgeable contributors to allow a space for studying the text or teachings in long format without interruptions of replies and discussion. Questions and discussion about the posts found in the Library section of each category can be discussed in the Study Hall or Court Yard of those respective categories. Members will need to request access to post in these sections, and can do so in the General Discussion section of the Forum Hub.
The Translation Work section is for translators to discuss translation work, share resources, and talk about upcoming projects.
Again this is a work in progress and the forum will evolve to fit the needs of the community. Thank you for joining!
