Yuji-sama
This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.
The desire to learn Buddhism this time is truly appreciated and precious.
“It seems like there are a lot of Buddhist ideas”...
Yes, as one theory says “The Eighty-Four Thousand Dharma,” there are certainly a lot of them.
Question “For some reason I can't decide on one...”

“... Anyway, the Buddha's teachings are said to have been explained with skilful convenience in response to people's hesitation and suffering, as it has been likened to having 84,000 Dharma. If there were exactly 6 billion people, there would be 6 billion ways of lost and suffering, and it would not be strange if there were teachings corresponding to them. Among them, there are teachings that suit Yuji, and there may also be teachings that are not suitable for Yuji, and I think that depending on the time of year, environment, state of mind, progress in learning, etc., there will also be things that fit or are not. Therefore, I think it would be nice to first learn what kind of teachings there are, comprehensively learn the teachings of each religious denomination, and then find teachings that suit you, and I also think it would be good to think about “Buddha relationships” one by one after cherishing them. ・・”
Also, I hope you can refer to the humble answers to the questions below.
