      @@marcus.the.younger but what is the need to mention it...
      The statement could be - "Buddhism is an universal philosophy". Seems like a complete sentence.
      The need to mention the last phrase, "not a typical religion" - is somehow weird.
      Because, you are disregarding all religions in one go. Well, didn't Buddhism teach acceptance.
      Ooops... they are just running away from something ... since their early years.
      Think about it deeply before responding mate.

I can't even go shopping as I'm needed 24/7 every single day. How becoming a Buddha can help the society? I really don't know anything about it. I thought it was a religion but people here say it isnt, it's a way of life.

    Hi, greeting from Jakarta, Indonesia. I am a Buddhism Practitioner. Agree with her speech, Buddhism is not just a religion, but it is a way of life, which called Dhamma (in Pali) or Dharma (In Sanskrit). You have to practice it in your everyday life. Buddhism never force somebody to believe it until you come and see for yourself, which called Ehipassiko (Come and Prove it). Hopefully someday, we can invite her to have a dhammadesana (spiritual speech) in Indonesia.

      Unfortunately, I was born in the US, and first was introduced to NSA Buddhism in 1981, and that did not satisfy my needs. When I journeyed to Thailand in 1983, I discovered Theravada, and from that point, I determined to BE Theravada, and someday live in a Theravada Temple (WAT) in Thailand. In 2010, I achieved that goal.

    "The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend a personal God and
    avoid dogmas and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based
    on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things, natural and spiritual, as a
    meaningful unity. Buddhism answers this description. If there is any religion that would
    cope with modern scientific needs, it would be Buddhism."

    Buddhism helps to learn the reality about the purpose of this life, that is earned by us via "Karma". We have earned a short span of time in this life - in that we have to self realize, find ourselves. Its "Damma" is a full and complete narration of the existence. Like presented here, it is well rooted and described in depth in all South Asian Nations, the monks are well versed and capable of sharing its wisdom with those who are keen to find the path to "Enlightenment".

    Life is very short and It's ending like a dream,
    Sometimes sorrow,
    Sometimes happy......
    Learn the Dhamma of the Buddha to get rid of this life-tragedy.

      I am a student of Tibetan Buddhism (Sakya) but I wonder if it’s for me or whether my path is that of Zen.

      sandeep r I don’t have the time to explain it in any great depth- research a bit more if you’re interested.
      There are 4 major ‘schools of Tibetan Mahayana Buddhism- Ngyingma, Sakyapa, Kaguyu and Gelukpa.
      Zen, in Japan, and Chan in China, were introduced into these regions by either Indian practitioners (or those from the Himalayan regions) and the Chinese and Japanese then adopted and adapted Buddhism to fit in with their other cultural and spiritual beliefs and practices.

      You might like to start by observing yourself,your body sensations,thoughts,emotions etc
      A simple theravadan tool for this is to place your body in a safe,quiet,not unpleasant place,
      Then focus your attention on your stomach rising and falling,with your breath ...just pay attention without trying to change anything
      Distractions will come such as thoughts,sensations etc,which you just mentally note/categorise
      For example if thoughts arise you note it as thinking
      If emotions arise you note this as emotion
      Whatever the distraction after noting you return your attention to the stomach rising and falling
      And that is about it
      There are several forms of meditation ...but the above helped me
      Good luck

Do some research for yourself. Study after study is coming out showing the psychedelics are one of the most powerful tools we have for unlocking the mind and treating a wide ailment of disorder such as depression, anxiety, PTSD. Look up the John Hopkins psilocybin studies for starters.

      @@chad5617 I'm well aware of the benefits and well aware of the studies. It's what I do every day. People tend to disregard the negatives of psychedelics in order to appear new age and trendy. Regardless of the possible positive outcomes from using psychedelics as treatment it's important for people to meet with a licensed psychiatrist before consuming anything. In many cases psychedelics can worsen conditions or give someone new symptoms like anxiety and even something as severe as schizophrenia with using LSD.
      Op whatever you do, be safe and steer clear of misinformation. The use of psychedelics as a therapeutic substance is still a new topic and hasn't been researched fully. If you are tempted to try it make sure that you first receive approval from a licensed psychiatrist.

    What tickles me about western men and women is that they decide to become monks in their late 50s and 60s and so on in their elder years after they've lived their younger lives partying and enjoying life,then they make the big decision. It's very different in Buddhist countries when they do it at a very young age 20s and less even.

      you say ''partying and enjoying life'' like that is the right way to live your young years. but what I have realised that those kinds of people are the emptiest.. There is a reason here in the west young people are so depressed, anxious and stressed. and I'm one of them. I would much rather live life in a more peaceful way, surrounded with nature and peaceful people. But instead I'm surrounded by chaos.
