G'day from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺

I have been learning about Buddhism for a year now, and try to do meditation daily.

I'm was born in a Sunni Muslim ☪️ family but I was always curious about the deep and complex questions of the life like existence, meaning, suffering cause..etc. & I couldn't find the answers but kinda fascinated and attracted to the Buddha ever since I was a kid and after reading about thr Nikāyas and Therāvada Buddhism, it changed my life and it means a lot that I found the Noble Buddha's Dhamma!!

Srilanka 🇱🇰 Best Buddhist Country In the world 🌎

I am a Sri Lankan Buddhist. We worship to Thailand Bhuddidsm upto now, But earlier ( before 1000 years era of sinhala kings)Buddhism of our country is very useful to develop our lives, and helpful to get very satisfaction of our whole life.
Therefore We remove the Thailand Buddhism from our lives from now.
Now we live with very strong mind with great satisfaction in day to day life.

In Buddhist there are lots of level of teaching and we generally end up making ourselves confuse about it and gradually forget perhaps. I have been studying Buddhism for more than 12 years and I found one very important points that all Buddhist should know. In fact my Teacher, 12th Zurmang Garwang always used to said that" never separate listening, contemplating and meditating" while we are learning especially Buddhism and that's really makes sense for me because I only came to know that the reasons people usually unaware of the real teaching after practising those said advices.
There are basically three levels of Buddhist teaching for three kind of different students. You can distinguish thoes three levels of teachings for that you need thoes said three words that my guru shared. Thank you.
If any doubt, please comments here. Be positively clever friends all beautiful nations.

We love you and your nation. Lots of love from Sikkim india.
