Kate's new here

Hiya... just exploring this forum... i'm a buddhist and curious about different expressions of spirituality! Look forward to making new friends!

Hey Kate,

I'm glad you could find us. Thanks for sticking in, I've been pretty busy with school lately and haven't had much time to work on some of the bugs that have come up on the site, so a lot of people have been getting error messages. I'm glad your post got through!

I am so glad that you are interested in Buddism, on of the books that got me interested was something I read by the Dali Llama called " The Universe in a Single Atom: The convergence of Science and Spirituality" Have you seen this book?

Do you practice a particular form of Buddism? I recently ran across a small group at my University called "Nicherin" it was cool, but one of the things in an arbitrary chant that they do, which I can understand it having power, but to me something only has power if you give it power. So, I try to practice a less arbitrary form of "Meditation".

What about you?
