Hi, I'm Lisa, the Buddhism editor. This forum is a place to post questions about Buddhism, comment on recent articles, debate Buddhist related topics, and offer suggestions for topics you'd like me to cover in articles or future threads. Feel free to reply to this post, introduce yourself, and let me know why you are interested in Buddhism. What Buddhist themes and practices are you most interested in? What books have you recently read on Buddhism that you enjoyed? If you are a practicing Buddhist, what branch do you consider yourself? If you are new to Buddhism, be sure to check out the Buddhism FAQ at http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art48856.asp. And sign up for the weekly BellaOnline Buddhism newsletter at http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art31382.asp, so that you can keep up to date on current articles and forum activity. In this and all threads, please observe the following posting guidelines: - Be respectful! No proselytizing, for or against Buddhism. This forum is open to anyone, but it is not a platform for trying to convert others to Buddhism, or to convert Buddhists to other religions/philosophies. - Be nice. When disagreements arise, please be courteous in your words and tone. - If you are posting a question or debate item yourself, and are looking for responses only from Buddhists, or only from Buddhists in a particular branch, please politely state this. Otherwise, anyone may respond. This forum is open to Buddhists, quasi-Buddhists and non-Buddhists. - Keep outside links relevant to the thread. You are welcome to post links to articles and resources directly related to a topic's thread, but please do not post spam. Note that raw urls are not allowed, if you need help using UBB code, just message me. Thanks, and please do introduce yourself, and send me suggestions!

Hi, my name is alexandra and Im a Buddhist. I used to be a frequent visitor here, and aimed to become very involved with this forum, but pressure of work and daily life got in the way! (isn't it maddening when it does that - ?!?) I try to pop in now and then, and will support as much as I can. I practice Theravada buddhism, and have been a Buddhist for nearly 20 years now. I lose count. One does whilst living entirely in the present, doncha know!
