Tuesday evenings at the Buddhist temple
I like going to the Buddhist temple.
I can walk there,
lots of nice people there,
I have good dreams after I go.
I like the views that they have on how everything works.
using ideas I got there, lets say that I incarnate to this life, and got some choice in the matter, I can see why I would pick the place that I did with the info that I had then, how would I be able to tell that things would go so wrong? The answer is that I could not have, it was just bad luck.
if I believe the Christians ideas, I just ended up here (at god's choice) and have to deal with it, this thought bothers me.
if I believe how I was raised, before I showed up to this world, I picked to have all this pain in life, and thus deserve it.
see why I like the Buddhist ideas.
