Starting a local 12-Steps of Liberation Group locally...
Posted on June 28, 2010 at 12:00am 0 Comments 0 Likes
In the near future I intend to start a Recovery Group locally based on the 12-Steps of Liberation. This will be a decidedly Buddhist Recovery Group independent from A.A. or any other established Recovery
Group. As other 12-Step Groups though, all Buddhists in recovery or
those that are interested in Buddhism will be welcome. The group
meetings will not be strictly for SGI or Nichirin Buddhist, but all
Buddhists in general.
* I have…

Today I started a group here. It is called, The 12-Steps of Liberation. It is a group that utilizes a unique 12-Steps based on the Four Noble Truths and the Eight Fold Path combined to form a decidedly Buddhist set of 12-Steps of Recovery.

Membership is not restricted to one type of addiction or another and also welcomes people with dysfunctional and self-destructive…

profound deep spiritual experience. It was like my body cesed to be my
mind was stilled and centered and I experienced a complete state of
Nirvana. Later in life I got away from meditation… Continue

Good Fortune and an Attitude of Gratitude
Posted on June 5, 2010 at 10:16am 0 Comments 0 Likes
This morning I have been sitting and reflecting upon my blessings and good fortune. I have so much to be grateful for. I feel that a time of meditation and contemplation on the good things in one's life is an important essential. An "Attitude of Grattitude" is a characteristic we should strive to live out in our lives everyday. As Sensei Ikeda says, that true happiness does not mean that ones life will not be free from suffering and turmoil, but true happiness is to not be moved by these…
