Hi!

Post by dandeedo »

Hello dhamma friends!

I thought it's probably about time i introduced myself on this forum... my names Dan, been practicing the dhamma for about 4 or 5 years. I have been dealing with a very unpleasant chronic health condition for quite a while, having the dhamma as my refuge has allowed this experience, however tough its been, to be a teacher along the path...

its nice to see so many likeminded practitioners gathered here!

“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.”
- Cormac McCarthy, The Road

Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

Welcome Dan!

:anjali:
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.
