Different traditions question.
 

Hello, it's me again. How has everyone been? I've been good, etc. I've missed reading the forum but I've been taking a much needed vacation! :)

Anyway, during my little sojourn around various places I did a lot more meditating and I guess I basically decided I do want to pursue Buddhism closer. Problem is all these multiple traditions are quite confusing for someone wanting to go a little deeper. I've Googled and I've got a list of all these tons of writings and books, but I was wondering if anyone had any resources that would be a bit more beginner friendly when it comes to discerning differences in and learning about the different Buddist traditions?

Thanks,
Aaron

Haha, thank you. It is. I would go search all over Google and the internet and not even notice it pinned on this very forum. Thanks again.

Hi Aardvark,
Try and look at the big picture from different angles.
Let the tradition find you, you've got whole of your life to get it right. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/grin.gif
