Christian Buddhist?

[Arctic-Stranger]

Ok, here is one for you. I tend toward most Christian beliefs (Jesus, God, Trinity, the Bible, etc)

But my practice is closer to a mixture of Zen and Vipassana. I worship at a Quaker meeting, which is almost all silence.

Other than confused, what am i?

You, my friend, are courageous. You have the courage to own self-doubt. As someone once said to me, the first step on the road to knowledge is to know that you don't know.

That is the chink in the armour that lets the light in.

With an honest heart and a true spirit all the practises you use have at their hearts a spiritual truth, like fruits each one has a different complexion, different flavour, different nourishing elements.

All you're really saying is that you live on a mixed spiritual diet. Enjoy.

I had the priviledge to meet a Tibetan Rimpoche. I told him I was born a Catholic. He embraced me and smiling hugely said, We are brothers for we are both belivers.

It's the BELIVERS that really worry me.

Indeed alpha, he is courageous enough to have self-doubt which, I believe, accordingly fosters introspective self-examination and examination of our beliefs, however set in tradition they can be. As I believe Socrates said, "The unexamined life is not one worth living."
