Introduction
The Boston Meditation Group conducted a survey of its membership to determine the interest level in purchasing property for a permanent location for the group. The survey took place between September 27 and October 22, 2006, with postal mail and email sent to the entire BMG community. The results were presented at the General Business Meeting on November 5.

Next Steps
Based on feeback from Mother Center, we are forming a Building Committee, composed of BMG members, whose initial purpose will be to create a business plan that describes the available resources, property requirements, and how the necessary funds can be raised to cover the costs of buying and maintaining a property.
We will post news of the Building Committee's plans and activities on this page, and we look forward to the participation of the BMG community in creating and realizing a vision for a permanent home for Paramahansa Yogananda's first group in America.
Discussion
If you have any questions or would like to discuss the survey results, we warmly welcome your input.
