I love the way you describe Buddhism. It’s exactly how I’ve always looked at it.

Hi Stephanie! Thank you for sharing this! What is your Buddhist "background"? From who have you learned? Just curious! Nice meeting you!

Peaceful Breathing I have mostly learned from books! The first book I read was Good Life, Good Death. It changed my life. Then I read Ethics for the New Millennium by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. I also read a book that came with my meditation cushions called Turning the Mind into an Ally by Sakyong Mipham. I have read other stuff online and went to a couple meditation sessions when I first got into it but mostly practiced by myself. I’m a pretty big introvert!

@@Plantsandmusicandyarn Wow! How interesting! I haven't heard about these books yet. Well, i haven't explored much of Tibetan Buddhism actually. But I will at some point. I have mainly learned from Thich Nhat Hanh and also the Vipassana tradition. Right now, I am exploring the Yogic world with Sadhguru. Many pathways to explore ...

Peaceful Breathing I will have to look into those as well! I definitely recommend reading anything by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. He’s got this peace around him that just inspires me.
