Yes. I see you point! It was clarifiyng.

Sory about that my english is quite rusty. I should take a second or to to post hehe.
Thanks for the reply

I have the same problem, i really dont see the point in nichiren buddhism yet and i was hoping that someone could explain it. Here in argentina is very popular, my sister who i dont live with and a friend are followers but it seems very incomplete. More like a social help group than actual buddhism ...

By the way sory to the creator of this thread for posting my own doubts in your thread.

I liked shinzen views, but it seems "incomplete". Though i dont practice deity yoga and im just talking out of curiosity.

What do you think of shinzen young view of "deity yoga"?

Is the equanimty of the four Immeasurables different from the equanimty born from samadhi cultivation? I havent practiced equanimty meditation yet but it seems that the focus is different from the one born in samatha. What i mean is that the equanimty from samadhi cultivation seems more related to a...

Hi. Im starting to get into specific tibetan buddhism and i was wondering whats the role of brahmavihara in this tradition. How important is in the practices priorities? How do they practice it? In wich order we should learn to meditate on them? I have been doing metta for a couple of months and i w...

Haha thats strange. I dont have cats of my own because they give me alergies but i have a friend who has a very active cat, he doesnt stay still for one second. The strange thing about it is that the times that i have meditated in my friend house for a long time the cat just stayed stilled, and when...

There are some tibetan centers here in buenos aires luckly. Still i got tempted to see what will come next. This is a ...
