Where to begin?

Sometimes it seems that we make our own clouds in the clear sky. The question is why do we choose to be separate from the Eternal. Choosing to continue to suffer by making clouds is a human condition. Buddhism allows us to see why we suffer and how to clear at least some of the clouds and understand we have never been separate from the sky.

My intention to save all beings from suffering. The Bodhisattva path is my journey of choice.

Practice

Is there anything in life but to practice? Do we choose to be awake and following the precepts or do we choose ignorance and delusion. What karma do we choose in this moment? If we truly allow the precepts to inform our lives then we will always be practicing. The Buddha's way is nothing but practice; everyday life is what there is.
