Greetings Aloka,

Thanks for sharing.

Many of us who are not from traditional Buddhist countries had to go to some degree of effort, investigation, or conscious decision, to arrive at Buddhism as our spiritual path.

The situation must be significantly different when you are born into a "Buddhist country", or if you are just Buddhist "by default" despite having negligible interest in spiritual cultivation.

Are there any members of this fine community who were born into a Buddhist country who might be able to share their experiences in this context?

Metta,
Retro.
