"It's rewarding/challenging to study a different world view from the one in which you were raised. The intro says it all and I recommend it highly but in chapter three I'm having difficulty buying past lives and some aspects of karma, however the better part of this book is so positive and full of common sense; I'm really enjoying it, especially when Ikeda brings in examples from western culture.
7/2 Our SGI group is reading/discussing this together. We share our experiences and I have to say I've never met such a wonderful group of people in my life. An internet friend in India sent an iCard about god making my day happy and now that I've been introduced to buddhist concepts, it seems so odd. No disrespect to believers in god, as Lennon said 'God is a concept'. It's not up to god to make us happy. At Friday evening sabbbat I was feeling very Jewish sharing the ritual with friends (the last supper, holy communion bread and wine - yummy organic grape juice from Trader Joe's-, 'lavabo lavabo' - the washing of hands, yeah, we stole all that in catholicism) but also very happy to think there is no god. It's us."
