A lot of people in my life have been Buddhist. I have a Buddhist temple and a philosophy, but it hasn’t really helped me in terms of understanding Buddhism.

You’re right that this is a major obstacle to my conversion to Buddhism as it’s a huge barrier to my understanding of the faith. It’s a personal problem, but I think that’s what makes Buddhism a unique spiritual practice. I don’t know of any other practice that is so much a part of my life. There are many who have never even heard of it. I’m a bit ashamed that I’m even trying to say that. I don’t think I could have gotten through all of this without Buddhism. It’s very much integral to my spirituality.
