Greetings

Post by LobsangSherab83 »

Hello Everyone,

Lobsang Sherab here, I'm American born into a christian family, Lyndon is my birth name. I became interested into Buddhism during my time in the military, when I was station in Japan and I was exposed to the Sangha. I hope to gain knowledge here, and develop my understanding of the Dharma.

Blessings

What kind of Buddhism did you like in Japan?
1.The problem isn’t ‘ignorance’. The problem is the mind you have right now. (H.H. Karmapa XVII @NYC 2/4/18)
2. I support Mingyur R and HHDL in their positions against lama abuse.
3. Student: Lama, I thought I might die but then I realized that the 3 Jewels would protect me.
Lama: Even If you had died the 3 Jewels would still have protected you. (DW post by Fortyeightvows)

I was really fascinated by Shingon Buddhism. I ended up going to a Shinyo-en temple, and was pleased about the amount of english material available, they have a very good pray book with romaji transliteration. However, Shinyo-en seemed to a little to cultish to for me so I stopped going.
