Another "Moin"

Moin,

so what can I say... My name is Florian. I'm 23 years old and I live in Neuburg/Germany.
I'm able to read and understand english quite well, but my writing experience, especially with respect to these particular buddhism topics, is rather nothing. So I guess the terminology needed for efficient conversation or discussion does not really exist at the moment.
However I'm going to read the topics and I think thereby I'll learn enough sophisticated vocab so that we could have some helpful conversation some day.
Since I read a book about the 4 noble truths, I decided to read up on it. Well so I came to buddhism - especially to Theravada.
So far so good...kind regards
:namaste:

Moin,Moin Florian. :smile:

I know you by name from another (german) forum. Nice to meet you here. :namaste:

To my introduction:
I come from (not so far) nothern germany and I'm aged 46 years. My first contact with buddhism was about 1996. After some years of searching and learning the teachings of the different schools I returned back to the pure teachings of the Buddha. I'm also influenced by the Thai Forest Tradition and the writings of Nanavira Thera.

With best wishes

I thought about it, too. But I'll stay for a while and watch how the things will develop.

Yes, the things will change over and over again. That's what the Buddha taught. :namaste:

Do you mean "Buddhaland"?

I left the forum about a half year ago... there were too many smart-alecks :thinking:

btw.: We have met at StudiVZ some time ago :smile:
