WELCOME
TO THE UNIVERSAL DHARMA WEBSITE!
ABHINYANA (BEACHCOMBER)
|
Buddhism,
with its various schools and sects, is one of
many religions in the world, and is not and never
will be accepted by everyone. The Dharma, however,
is something that applies to everyone and everything,
whether we know it or not, believe it or not,
and is therefore Universal. To call it Universal
is superfluous, but I do so in order to distinguish
it from sectarian Buddhism. |

If asked to tell our
life-story without mentioning anyone else, we
could say almost nothing, for our lives are made
up—like a tapestry—of innumerable
threads that are 'not-us'; they are not simply
'ours' but in fact, mostly 'not-ours'. Anyone—and
anything—we meet, who crosses our path or
impinges upon us in any way, becomes part of our
experience, or what we think us as 'our life'.
In reality, there is no such thing as 'my life',
but an extremely rich and varied composition of
so many things. See how it happens: just by reading
these words, I am becoming part of your life and,
in an equally subtle way, you are becoming part
of mine. There is very little about us that is
really 'I'. |

Since all the words we
use come to us from other people, there is no
copyright on any of my books. If anyone wishes
to reprint anything from them, or even all, they
may do so without permission; all I ask is that
they do not copy wrong! |
