I really like this site, and is a proud member of it :]

I know that Pureland is not the limit, but the meanings to an end (Nirvana). I also know that signals (you know, visions, strange smells, etc during sucessful rebirths) are even much less important. The thing is what i alread explained: with reports, one faith would be greater. But i should say, th...

Hello :] You will not need any special empowerment if you are just doing simple Pure Land practice such as veneration, recitation of Ksitigarbha Names, reciting the sutra or mantra, etc., it is for all. Usually only Vajarayana tradition require empowerment on some practices. If you go to many Vietna...

Thank you for sharing that Bodhi. I have a question for you or any other Pure Land buddhist: have you ever got any signs about your rebirth on Pure Land? What about your Master, did he got any signs? Do you have faith that you will get them? What other differences do you notice in your life because...

Peace in Chan

As for now I have a mala with 108 beads. It is made of woods and very dark in color. It is extremely Smooth and I got it from the Maitreya Project group.

I know each master have their own way of teaching and benefiting sentient beings, but these are the 5 masters from past and present that inspire me alot. 1. Bodhidharma http://www.feedback.nildram.co.uk/richardebbs/pictures/bodhi/bodhidharma44.jpg 2. The 6th patriarch Hui Neng http://history.cultura...

I addressed all the monastics at Buddha Mind and other affiliates as well as Shifu, it just means master. I find it appropriate to do so, because I wouldn't know any other way to address them with utmost respect. Either way they are my Meditation masters, they also give Dharma lectures and are like ...

I just thought I would like to share a little experience I have from my meditation. I haven't been meditating for long. I was first started out as a Pure Land Buddhist and maybe what can be close to meditation is my daily recitation of "Namo Amitabha Buddha". But I finally found Chan to be much more...

I'm not claiming that I have never done it myself, but I would like to be careful about that, ka...

Interesting, an anime of Buddha :]

A lay person can indeed engaged in deep practice of course, but that doesn't mean he or she is qualify at all to be a Dharma in...
