NAMU AMIDA BU !

About Me:

I encountered the buddha around 7years ago,starting with pure land through a book called,"pure land pure mind".I then made my way through most of the schools,trying to see which was right for me.Then about 4years ago i met reverend jim pym through the pen,and through his good teaching i am up to this point.Now that i have come to understand through the ichimai kishomon that study cannot take me to the pure land,i wish only to live the Nembutsu and serve my fellow beings. NAMU AMIDA BU.
