Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great "in-the-middle" Buddhist Magazine
I'm a little "new" to Buddhism.I've been trying to learn more over the past few years. I find that Buddhism is a lot like Christianity for the fact that there are lots of different "types".There's not one Christian religion, there are lots of different ones. ..Baptist. . . Church of Christ. ..Methodist. .. .etc. etc. etc.This is the same way with Buddhism, and honestly, one of the reasons I find Buddhism so "difficult".

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Extremely well written
Hard to compare, since there isn't a lot of competition in the world of spiritual-inspired magazines.Tricycle stands out on it's own as a great publication.Well written articles, and a broad range of topics covered.And, my favorite bit, they don't repeat themselves every few issues.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - I liked it but . . .
I really liked Tricycle. I enjoyed the articles and poems and found them interesting, and informative. But the magazine really smells. Every issue exudes an unpleasant odor. I found it difficult to read the magazine because it smelled so much. I cancelled my subscription when my son refused to sit in my lap while the magazine was open.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great...where is it going?
I've enjoyed Tricycle for many years, but it does contain a lot of advertising, and I'm baffled when the publisher solicits donations to keep the magazine running.I'd rather see them fully embrace one form of revenue or the other.If they're not-for-profit, what's with all the slick ads?

Essentially, Tricycle seems to be heading towards a more self-serving model of publishing.Perhaps I simply miss the days when it was fresh and vibrant with new ideas.

Still, four stars!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Dont have to be a Buddhist to love this magazine....
While I am not a Buddhist,(our son and friends are) I still love, appreciate and gain wisdom from this wonderful publication, which I was exposed to over a decade ago by Zen master Don Gilbert of Tracy, CA.And I was so excited, if that's the right word, when the new issue arrived, because two articles caught my eye.

One is titled (page 39) The Gossip Trap and should be read by most Americans.Page 40 'What are we achieving by holding up a magnifying glass instead of looking in the mirror?' ... Read More
