Hello from America!
by Kori » Thu Apr 14, 2011 2:26 am
Hello, my name's Leah! I recently registered at the Dhamma Wheel, and decided to join the Dharma Wheel as well to come to a better understanding of Mahayana and Tibetan Buddhism. About two weeks ago I took to the five precepts and have been what I guess is a Theravada Buddhist, but look to expand my knowledge. I look forward to my stay here as well!
Mettā pāramī,
Leah

In these difficult times you may feel that it is helpful
To be sharp and critical with aggressive people around you.
This approach will just be a source of distress and confusion for you.

Greetings Kare,
Yes, but the fence has a gate, and the gate is unlocked.
