New here, Hello

Post by Shinyo »

Hello friends,

My name is Levi, Dharma name Shinyo. I'm a practicing Jodo Shinshu Buddhist (With a wider interest in the Mahayana and other traditions).

As for Buddhism, I've been practicing for almost half my life, which is not too long since I'm just 26. I was very lucky to be accepted into the Bright Dawn Center of Oneness Buddhism's education and training course at a young age, and was eventually ordained as a minister under my late teacher Rev. Koyo Kubose. But as my teacher always said, a master is just a student who has perfected his ability to studies, so I'm always trying to learn. Outside of that I've got my BA in Philosophy and just earned by MA in theology - focusing on interfaith and Buddhist / Christian dialogue.

I'm glad to have found this form, and hope to be able to make some connections with the wider Sangha and learn from you all!
