Gratitude for all the things I learn around

unique to the online forum world....but overall...
this sure is some good growing ground for all
kinds of Buddhism! Great group of people!

Yes. I've visited a few Buddhist forum's, and they all seem good, but new Buddhist has a really great number of interesting threads to read, and learn from. It's been a really good source of learning for me, and will be for a long time i'm sure.

Echoing @Dandelion 's experience:

I have wanted to say this for some time - one of the good features of New Buddhist lies in the fact that it not only has a big tent (welcoming different approaches to Buddhist practice) but it also does not segregate those different approaches into sub-forums for each. As a result, everyone ends up mingling a lot more rather than scurrying off to their own corner.

So everyone may benefit more because of this-- interacting a lot more exposure to different schools, different perspectives. Otherwise I might stick to only Chan/Zen and I would miss out on other opportunities to learn from other traditions! I find it healthier and more beneficial having a melting pot, even if the doctrinal differences do arise. Avoiding the creation of sub-forums like this certainly helps in this respect I think.

I have to second the praise above. I've tried other boards and I've learned more here than on all the other boards combined.
