Interesting about your Buddhist friend, have you visited the temple with him, or meditated with him ? Just curious if you have any general thoughts to share on Buddhist meditation, either here or in the Buddhist meditation section.
I have thought about it. I have read a few Buddhist books, and do enjoy some of their philosophies. I have never actually gone to their temple. I don't think I really could adhere to it anymore. For I find it very limiting to just follow one path.. When you do that you get stuck behind your mind, and behind doctrines, and never truly are free. You are held fast in rigid beliefs.
