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.

Greetings Yessu and welcome to Dhamma Wheel!

Welcome.
What is the use of his knowledge
pertaining to the number of insects in the whole world?
Rather, inquire into his knowledge of
that which is to be practised by us
-- Dharmakirti
This being is bound to samsara, kamma is his means for going beyond.

Níl sa saol seo ach ceo
There is naught in this life but mist
Is ní bheimid beo ach seal beag gearr.
And we will not be alive but a short hard time.

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