About RWB

Who writes this stuff?

My name is Stamati, I’m 23 years old, and I have a BA in Art Education from Florida State University.

Why are you blogging about this?

The Buddhist religious tradition is rich with interesting art, philosophy, ritual, and pragmatic wisdom, all of which has made a profound impact on a huge portion of humanity which, by the way, is set to take over the world.  Something tells me understanding their culture and history is going to end up being important.  More importantly and primarily, I have found Buddhist practice of immense value in my personal life, so I feel it is worth investigating.

What do you hope to accomplish?

With this blog, I hope to have a record of what I’m learning about Buddhism.  If I want to pursue anything related to this on an academic or pastoral level, then a repository of my independent study will be pretty helpful.  In my life, I hope to be there.
