Hello from the other side
Hello from the other side
I have read a few books on buddhism the last ten years.
The latest being why buddhism is true by Robert Wright
Basically I pretty much accept the non self is true.
I just need to work on meditation.
Any other advice?

Where do I find a teacher?
Re: Hello from the other side
Find some Buddhism lectures on youtube, watch a bunch of different ones. See if you are interested in some, not in others. Ask about them here.

Welcome hoping you all the best in your search
Re: Hello from the other side
Do you have dharma centers near you? Look up their online schedule and maybe attend a few classes after researching them a bit first.
Happy Pride month to my queer dharma siblings!

Re: Hello from the other side
The best way to find a Teacher is to ask a person you trust in a setting you trust (online if online, I’m person if in person, etc), about a Teacher they recommend. The best Teachers are generally those that others recommend, from my experience. At least that’s an easy way to find a good one, and also the most reliable.
