    What first attracted me to Dharma was meditation. I just wanted to reduce my stress and train my mind, but then I started diving deeper and *I thought* I had to make a choice between God or Buddha. After soul-searching and the advice of my wise teachers, I realized that I didn’t have to choose anything. It became clear to me that there was room for practicing Dharma, and no reason to give up anything. From a Buddhist perspective names are simply labels. I impute God = Buddha/Buddha = God. From my personal perspective, the names are interchangeable and are one in the same.
