Tibetan is really popular.

b/c of the fame of the Dalai Lama. I find it superstitious.

I like Mahayana but of course I'm 175 miles from a Mahayana or any Buddhist temple.

1. Compared to Christianity ...

Many Buddhist have home altars and worship, meditate there.
Tibetan Buddhism is to Mahayana as the Catholic Church is to a Methodist church.

I myself practice Shin Buddhism, a form of Mahayana.

4. Thanks for the link...

I'm going to look this over.

IF, I could get to more reading (any reading) and study...if I had to, at this time, specify a "sect", I would spend more
time learning about Shin. My practice needs to be (make that, WOULD need to be) something that I can live with on
an everyday basis.

Tibetan and Zen, I feel, would not be practices that I could live with currently.

Anyone with other sites, books, etc. that I should tuck away in my favorites list?

2. My problem with the Tibetan tradition is that so much of it depends on context and

group activities and for a lone Buddhist it's not replicable. You can appreciate it but there are other schools, in my opinion, better suited for a solitary Buddhist.
