Hey,
lately I've been looking in Buddhism, trying to find a path for myself. The problem is in my area, there are not Buddhist centers nearby and I find that a little disheartening. I've been reading the works of Alan Watts and D.T. Suzuki, and I'm mostly looking into Rinzai Zen. I've also been looking into Theravada Buddhism. But since there are no Buddhist communities nearby, or hardly any books on the subject, I've been almost totally reliant on the internet. Another problem is that I'm from a predominantly Protestant area, who generally frown upon eastern religions and traditions, I hope to find a Sangha suitable for me
