  • I consider myself a [[buddhist]].
    • Mostly [[rational]], but I think it's rational to be [[irrational]] some of the time (an example of a [[hedge]] maybe).
  • I try to follow the [[eightfold path]].
  • I try to practice as a [[bodhisattva]].
  • I believe in [[buddha nature]] as something common to all [[conscious beings]].

  • Ha, I can't believe I hadn't noded Gautama until [[2020-12-11]].
  • As of [[2021-11-20]] this was still clearly a stub.
  • As of [[2021]] I was not sure about my thoughts on many earlier and later [[buddhas]], but I wanted to learn more about them.
