Hello everybody

Postby lotuskaruna » Sat Nov 03, 2012 8:15 am

Hi buddhist friends :hug:

I'm so glad to be here, to read inspiring, important teachings that really make me feel calm and happy. I don't have buddhist friends, my friends and family are catholic or atheist, but they don't even think about espirituality as something important in this life. I guess I always wanted to find some answer for those philosophical questions, maybe not God neither Buddha can give it to me, just myself, through looking deep inside of me. :smile:

Thank you,
May all be happy, well and free :anjali:

Greetings and welcome to Dhamma Wheel!

Welcome! Sorry I missed your introduction earlier!
To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.
