Buddhism

Buddhism

Buddhism to me has always seemed to be something similar to that of a fairytale.  Not knowing much about the religion, I couldn’t understand how you could live happily ever after by looking up to a fat guy and making weird chanting sounds to who knows who.  Needless to say, for my exploration of culture, I chose Buddhism.  To pursue my study, I attended a class at the Heruka Buddhist Center on October 17, and talked, afterwards, with a Western Buddhist nun, Gen Kelsang Losel, who came to Fort Collins from England for the center.  The class was on contemplating the faults of attachments, a core belief among Buddhists.  The session began with a half hour of meditation to relax the muscles of the body and release tension. Then for forty-five minutes she lectured.  She talked about how all of our attachments and desires in our life lead us to pain and suffering. So in order to be happy, one must let go of our attachments.  Following, was another session of meditation. 
	Siddhartha Guatama, the founder of Buddhism, was born into a Hindu family where he was sheltered from pain and suffering.
