Reading a book on buddhism wont make you enlightened, but it can teach you some valuable things. Sometimes we might need a little help to see the truth.
Dropping a couple tabs of acid would send you on the way to.

I'm a buddhist, lots of my medical mj toker friends are too. And many other friends have similar life philosophies but don't label it.

There are so many different types of buddhism, over 1000 different sects, I believe. I'm a Nichiren Buddhist, we chant Nam Myoho Renge Kyo. Basic translation of meaning: Devotion to the mystic law of simultaneous cause and effect through sound.

Basic philosophy is that everything in the universe exists in each and everyone of us and in everything around us. The good and bad things we do are reflected in our karma, this is the cause and effect part.

When you think about our understanding of the physics of the universe; every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and such; it does kinda makes sense that something like this might be more plausable than monotheistic beliefs. I was raised a christian, so not bashing other religeous beliefs, just my thoughts on the subject.

Hey, I'm Buddhist! Just go here...http://www.thebigview.com/buddhism/eightfoldpath.html

The secret to happiness is LOW expectations. That's the gist of it. Don't expect much and don't get bummed out by anything because it's all going to come full circle in the end.

Don't get attached to anything. Try not to take a side and if you do, thoroughly go through the information. Don't harm anything/anyone.

It's pretty hard being a Buddhist in modern society (like America) because of all the materialism and shallowness promoted, but you just have to remember that it's all just a ride.

i just started reading a book written by the dalai lama called " the universe in a single atom, the convergence of science and spirituallity" only 200 or so pages, i read 70 today. interesting read. it has definetely got me interested in buddhism. seems logical and practical but i really know nothing about the religion. let me know how your book goes. i am going to get another book on the subject soon.
