Greetings,
I’m new to the site and am very interested in discussing philosophy. I’m a practicing Zen Buddhist as well.
Greetings Equal. Nice to meet you.
Yo, equal. Nice pic. Maybe you need some sun, though.
Or some anti-liming agents.
Hello.
Anyhow I just joined the military so I’m not really sure how often I can be on this website to converse with all those who partake in this website but I hope to nonetheless since philosophy really intrigues me.
Most likely I will be off and on around these discussion boards rather sporadically.
Alot of people find it odd that a buddhist would partake in the military but I have always thought to myself that one cannot understand creation or tranquility without understanding the more destructive vices that surrounds ourselves. I really hope that I can get to know many members on this board.
Regards, Equilibrium
The military of which nation, Equal?
I for one will be trying to get to know you, as i am interested greatly in Zen Buddhism. 
Greetings Equal!
I love Zen Gardening but Taoism gotten to me first, haha.
Enjoy your stay.
United States. Army Regular.
Taoism is equally interesting but the way isn’t just restricted to it alone as it can be found in Buddhism too.
It’s pretty interesting and I’ll be glad to help out when I can with my busy schedule.
Check out this ancient writer for starters:
Dogen is awesome.
He is my favorite Buddhist writer of all.
Oh no I mean I will focus on Taoism first, then Buddhism, then Confucianism, then maybe one of the orthodox school of Hinduism. 
These Eastern paths, taking what can be taken, tend to enrich my Christianity sooooo again welcome fellow-traveller. 
I myself studied all the world religions and philosophies before I chosed zen buddhism.
I enjoy reading about taoism and shaivism.
Hey Equilibrium!
I found that Zazen met my needs - I chose the sitting and staring at a blank wall method!
See you on the forum!
I thought he signed for Liverpool?
I usually go with koans myself.
I find anything but the wall, distracting, but that’s just me.
