Buddhism is very interesting faith.

When I worked at a funeral directors the Buddhist funeral was usually the longest and most stimulating of them all. I am not a god fearing Christian, but I do keep an open mind as to what life is all about.

I read the philosophy of Zen when I did my rugby coaching badges to help understand why we make decisions in sport when under pressure and although most of it was a bit deep for my pea brain I felt that I learned a lot from it.

I have also been told that when I sit crossed legged with my arms folded I look very much like a Buda statue, but I don’t consider that to be much of a complement.

Still not sure what your thread is about, have you been at the sherry?

Buddhism is a great gig. You don't own anything, so you can't be robbed from. Your working tools are a begging bowl, to ask for alms. Those who give are blessed. You can live anywhere, because Buddhism doesn't do borders, or nationality (yes, I know you need a passport, but look at the Dalai Lama - he gets around a bit, and he has't got a pot to pee in, either!) The uniform is great (if you like saffron robes), and you don't have to wear a tie.

The best thing is that you are a peace-loving person who wouldn't hurt a fly. However, the great Buddha, in his wisdom, has suggested that his followers "be aware" of defensive martial arts which they can use as a last resort.

Buddhists do train a lot.

If you are silly enough to attack a Buddhist, he will oh so very try to persuade you that violence and killing are bad.

Only then will you not see the blow coming which breaks your face.

I like Buddhists!

I tried getting 16 Vestal Virgins in it, and even using the minuscule boot area, I could still only manage three of them. What you need is a Transit. And paint it dayglo orange, maybe swap the horn for pan pipes too. Go on, the girls will love you for it, and so will Buddha. But I doubt you'll find any virgins in Caithness.:-)

Z​3 is special - it's the only group of order 3. That's one of the secrets in symmetry. :cool:
