Has anyone else new to the practice had that problem?
Hi Cal,
My boyfriend supports completely my need to live the Dhamma as was spoken by Buddha but he don't like it very much. At least not for him.
He is an amateur philosopher and he never stops arguing around his teachings... all day long. He likes that.
He looks at me with that glimpse in his eyes as saying "you have become crazy..."
But not big deal. He is a very peaceful and kind man.
Fortunately he has noticed an improvement in the quality of our relationship and we have undergone many radical changes in our personal life which are giving us peacefulness of mind.
Peacefulness of mind is where we coincide.
When I stopped telling him about "Buddhism" but to live in accordance of the "Natural Law" and we forget about "Buddha this" or "Buddha that..." we found ourselves thinking more less the same way.
Kind wishes for both of you...
