Christopher Brainerd blogs about his journey into Buddhism

This is a collection of Christopher Brainerd's ramblings written as a novice student of Buddhism.
My primary practice is Jodo Shinshu, yet I ramble on many spiritual topics.
Some of what follows is original, some are quotes or summations for which I provide the source.
Gassho!

Two Hands

Gratefulness and Joy
One is the cause of the other.
Gratefulness is the Lamp,
Joy is the Light.

Humility and Gratefulness
One enables the other.
Humility is the Handle,
That opens the door of Gratefulness.

Mindfulness and Gratefulness
One precedes the other.
Being Mindful provides room for Gratefulness.
Notice how miraculous life is!
