Title: Ahh. To be a Soto Zen Buddhist...
Post by: Sarah on December 15, 2007, 03:26:16 AM
Ah yes.
I am quite fortunate.
My teacher is very supportive of my being Transgendered.
He said: "The Eternal doesn't care how you dress.." and It certainly doesn't judge.
I am very fortunate.
I have a supportive family, Sangha, School, and community.
I can't imagine doing this without a religious practice of some sort.
To know the Eternal within one's heart: What a great comfort that is.
I never am alone.
So great to be alive.
I love you all so much.
Peace for you
-Sarah

Buddhists would be best friends for TS/TG people. Fortunately, most people in my country have  mindsets rooted in Buddhism, even they are catholic or Christian.
