Metta everyone,
I use to be on here as Ferox a year or two ago. Since that time I took the 8 lifetime precepts with Bhante G at Bhavana Society and was given the Pali name Jayantha. I continue to get deeper into my practice and have the intention to renounce in about a year. I just remembered this community and decided to come back to learn and also give whatever small wisdom I have. While this community can often times get off track and overly disputatious, I cannot deny how much I learned in my short months here last time.
looking forward to studying and practicing dhamma with you all,
Jayantha

Welcome back, and best wishes.
Metta,
Retro.

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)
'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo
