As mother of three children raised on my own is not a easy job to do. Very soon I realise that it is impossible to do it om my own.
So the first step I made on my spritial pad was to reconise en accept myself as a foolisch being.
Every day is a new journey to trust en believe that there's other power that's always helpfully en understanding, no jugde.
Amida trust is very helpfull for me and helps me to open my heart and feel compassion for the people around me.

It was like coming home.
The most attractive of Amida for me is that it is easy to praktisch in my commen life, trust is to give your life in the hands of other power.

Dear Annetta,
thank you very much for your comment, I'm very happy that you love to join Amida-Shu.
We were painting today the shrine room, which brought me also back to France, where we have done plenty of wall-painting. The summer was really very nice and intense.
It would be great to see you here in The Buddhist House and do some chanting together.
I'm much looking forward seeing you then.

Goed idee van je. Wat ik bijzonder vind is dat de plek in The Buddhist House is, waar de cursus gehouden wordt. Dit geeft een wel zeer bijzondere sfeer en ik ervaar het als inspirerend. De cursus zelf zit erg goed in mekaar, ervaringsgericht en je leert om te gaan met onverwachte dingen. Precies zoals het in een counselling sessie voor kan komen. Het is dus zeker niet alleen maar droge theorie. Integendeel zelf. Qua persoonlijke groei: wow, te gek. Als je de long distance cursus wilt volgen: ook deze zit erg goed in mekaar. Ook hier weer veel praktijk naast de theorie zodat je het allemaal zelf kan ervaren. Het grote voordeel vind ik dat de gehele opleiding flexibel is. Je kan je eigen tempo bepalen. In het kort dus. Een aanrader is om gewoon eens zo'n cursus block te volgen. Als het niks is dan heb je in iedergeval een bijzondere ervaring erbij. Succes ermee. Ik doe mee aan de feb. block. Misschien zie ik je daar?
