New to buddhism
by inthismoment » Wed Nov 07, 2012 5:31 am
I need some people to more thoroughly explain the teachings and give me the run downs on the basics of Buddhist rules. would also love to learn more about the different types of buddhism. It is very complex and I would like to find which branch fits me most.

Welcome to Dhamma Wheel! May you find what you're looking for! 
To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.
