It has completely reinvigorated our practice. I started practicing about 16-17 years ago autodidactically and got into some strange places that freaked me out. Had no understanding of what was happening. Living in Las Vegas, I had no other Buddhist to even talk to. Fast forward to now... I live in Seattle now and my practice has gotten into a total rut. I&amp;#039;ve felt at the group I go to like the advanced kid in school that&amp;#039;s bored and starting to fail because I&amp;#039;m being held back by the status quo. I&amp;#039;ve activly started complaining openly about many things... like how I feel like I&amp;#039;m just calling it in on the cusion, the Mindfulness movement is stripped down Buddhism, the deep intertwining here in the NW with the hippies... I could go on and on. So finding this hardcore movement is probably the most important event in my spiritual life. I feel amazing understood and invigorated to start all over from scratch and attack this enlightenment thing. I&amp;#039;m so ready for this!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Trick</description> <pubDate>Thu, 02 Oct 2014 14:06:02 GMT</pubDate> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.dharmaoverground.org/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=&amp;messageId=5596209</guid> <dc:creator>James Christopher Ferber</dc:creator> <dc:date>2014-10-02T14:06:02Z</dc:date> </item> </channel> </rss>
