Has anyone switched traditions?

To those who started in one tradition then began following another, what was your experience of that transition, and why did you make it?

Did you switch from Zen to Theravada?

The answer might not always be in one tradition or another. I find there can be truth and insight, just from different perspectives.

Did you intend to direct your comment to me, or the OP?

I meant to reply to you. Hopefully this time it works.

Actually not sure how to reply to the top post on kbin? There is no reply button except on comments below.

Yes, I switched from Soto Zen to the Thai forest tradition of Theravada.

This or that tradition was not my concern, but rather getting guidance on establishing right view.

Replying to the OP is done with the text entry box at the bottom of the comment thread.
