I wanted to ask this because the Buddha's teachings have been very helpful and practical for me. I'd love to share if anyone felt they would benefit, but I'm not trying to come across as prosetylizing which is why I ask.

Buddhism is fundamentally non-dogmatic. One does not have to be religious or call themselves a Buddhist to make use of its philosophical principles.

I'd love to share on the principle of Metta (loving kindness & good intention) & to help ease suffering.

It seems there is unanimous interest. I will write up a more comprehensive post on Buddhist teachings (Dhamma) and link it here once I complete it :)

If there are any specific topics or questions you wish for me to discuss in the post let me know!

For now, I will leave this video:



May we all find peace in rest. Rest from violence, hatred, and especially illnesses of body and mind. Rest :heart:

I don't think anything has helped me survive the worst times more than having a meditation practice supplemented by dharma talks. It can be hard to recommend because there's some part of me that thinks any kind of suggestion pushes people away, and that's just because a serious mindfulness practice offers such a cutting solution towards suffering, that one has to really hold back a kind of fervor. I don't know if you relate to this problem, but I think you're being very skillful with this thread either way. It really is possible to suffer dramatically less with practice. Are you familiar with Samaneri Jayasara on youtube?

But yeah, + 1 vote for taking meditation as seriously as possible if you care about reducing your suffering and the suffering of those around you, and cultivating good intention. You'll be very positively surprised if you really devote yourself here.

My computer broke and it's hard to make write ups on my phone so I will start on it in a few weeks as soon as my new one arrives.

Peace and love 💕

This would be great! It seems a lot of people are interested so it would be good to give it some exposure. I appreciate it and will notify you once it's complete :)

Appreciate you Dot ❤️
