New Member Looking For Some Conversation and Friends Along the Path!

Post by Ikkyu's_Son »

Hello all!

I'm a practitioner from Alabama just getting started along the Vajrayana path, practicing ngondro for the Longchen Nyingtik and Jonang Kalachakra under Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche and Shar Khentrul Rinpoche respectively. Zen was my gateway into Buddhism however, and though I have no sangha irl or virtual for Zen teachings, I do try to maintain a connection through a personal study and practice.

I'm not all that great at intros, so I'll shave it here, but looking forward to the forums!

Thank you for the welcomes everyone.

Does there happen to be a way to leave a reaction to posts, without responding to each individual post? I can't seem to find one and didn't want to clog up a thread by doing such.

No. It's consciously not desired to have "likes" here - this was what a majority uttered in a discussion.
You don't need to appreciate every single comment, if there is nothing else to say. You can show your appreciation sufficiently, if you just participate in your thread. You can write one collective Thank you to everybody as well.
