Hello and namaste to everyone here,
My name is Clarence and I am from the East Midlands in the UK. I am (mainly) white (with a little bit of Indian in the mix, probably from Mauritius) and a practising Buddhist. I became interested in Sanatana Dharma at university where most of my friends were from Gujarati families and I turned to Buddhism as it was the path of least resistance into a more detailed study of Indian philosophy. Many years later my interest in "Hinduism" will not go away so I hope to spend some time lurking here and asking stupid newbie questions in order to find out more. There are many, many things that I really don't understand yet so I ask you all to be patient with me, and feel free to let me know when I am being really dense. I have a thick skin and an insatiable appetite to learn :)
Regards
Clarry
