A group for the discussion of the central theory and ideas of Pureland Buddhism
The reason that the Europeons found it so hard to manage in Thailand is that they did not have the support net work that is available through family religious tribal and caste net works. In Asia one is seldom an individual who is self reliant it i...

Hello again. as Dan said we had our first teaching session today at Laxmi gardens.Preparing was difficult.

The problem was that while we were away a mouse had found it to be a fine home and its droppings had siezed the carriage. All fixed now.The monk Vinasiel has a new novice at his temple who was quite bemused by us. We had… Continue

Everything seems to stop working while I'm in England and this year water was the main problem.

Getting to Know U through Priest Joaquim's network.
I'm very interested in a Amida chaplin's experience & looking forward to become one,someday.
But first of all, I think I have to "create that causation"......planning to visit The Buddhist House next year.
A poem to share:
Come from nowhere, neither a place to go
Nothing ever......
From the Great Nembutsu Master kuangchin广钦老和尚
(1963~1985)
