Recently, a visitor to this blog asked me about Buddhism. So I told her everything I know:
The first thing to remember is I am from America and might see Buddhism a bit differently from people from Asia.
The second thing thing to remember is that it is easy. I have a video on my blog talking about how religion should be EASY. Check out the Standing under the Sky Videos link in the toolbar on the right.
Third: everything in the world changes. Nothing stays the same. People get older; the weather changes; no matter how much we eat today, we get hungry again tomorrow....
So now what follows is 'ALL' I know about Buddhism:
A. Do good;
B. When you can't do good, at least don't do evil; and
C. Be kind to every person, place, and thing.
Starting Monday, October 22, and on the 2nd and 4th Monday of each month, Brian Vaugh will lead an evening program of Spiritual Inquiry. We will meet from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at St. John's Parish on the Green in Waterbury. Along with a period of sitting meditation, each week we will look deeply into how we can lead a life in spiritual harmony with all of God's creation. The twice monthly group will use Wayne Dyer's latest book, Change Your Thoughts-Change Your Life as a guide. Do you have thoughts about this? Please drop me a line in the comment box to the right!
