Hello everyone,
I had been interested in Buddhism for a while before finding a Master and joining his sect of Chinese Esoteric Buddhism.
Since then I have become increasingly devoted to my practice.
I have also serve as a reservist in the United States Marine Corps.
I came to this forum to find out more about other types of Buddhism and make some friends.
Nice to meet you all.

Re: Hello
Welcome Yessu!
Liberation is the inevitable fruit of the path and is bound to blossom forth when there is steady and persistent practice. The only requirements for reaching the final goal are two: to start and to continue. If these requirements are met there is no doubt the goal will be attained. This is the Dhamma, the undeviating law.

Greetings Yessu and welcome to Dhamma Wheel!
“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”

in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

Welcome to DW!
To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.
