A place to share my experiences in trying to put the dharma into practice in my everyday life.
I never quite heard it put this way:
People born into this floating worldI'm rather fond of this passage.
Quickly become like roadside dust:
At dawn, little children,
By sunset, white-haired and old,
with no inner understanding
They struggle without cease.
I ask the children of the universe,
Why do you bother to pass this way?~ Ryokan

I am what you would call a classic 'seeker'. Spiritual matters have always been of utmost importance to me. I'm learning to apply this spiritual drive (and it's fruits) to the practicalities of life in hopes of living a life of purpose and meaning. I can take things WAY too seriously sometimes and part of my journey on the path is learning to lighten up and have good time.
