Hello my name is Slothrop...

...and I am very happy to introduce myself. I guess that my presence could be seen as unwelcome competition among Buddhist forum owners, but I did want to let the users here know that I have been working hard on my website that has no profit motive and only seeks to help people heal wounds with Buddhist tools. So please come and visit BYOBuddha.org and participate. Thank you.

This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!

Welcome, Slothrop. 
Nice website, best of luck with it. I like the emphasis on healing. "Healing the hostility that ails us" indeed!
Metta,
Phil

I hope that every time I post it will be accompanied by a wish for the wellbeing of everyone in this sangha and all beings.

Slothrop, providing you are as frequent a visitor here, as you hope others will be on your website, I don't see an issue.
If your only intention is to advertise your site, then never appear here again, however....
....that may be an entirely different issue altogether.

I am sooooo happy - How on earth could I be otherwise?!
