Every day, Buddhism is in the news. Fortunately it is mostly

about the goodness of Buddhists. I collect the daily news related to
Buddhism and put them here for your enjoyment. Please take advantage of
the occasion and give your opinion on the article that touches you.
Debate and testimonials are also welcome.
