I'm tired of buddha. I don't know the man; I kinda know the myth, but I have no idea about the dogma. I'm tired of buddha not because he's done anything to me, but I'm not sure I trust the newly converted. These now semi-devout buddha mediatationist will rail against the born-again christians whose social-conversative-moralistic-homogenic politics are short-sighted. But wait, didn't these new openned-minded practitioners of the eight-fold path become born again. They embrace suffering and say we should as well. They say this with an aloof smile and a rolled-up name-brand yoga matt tucked between their arms and torso. Hell if they want to suffer, they could spend an afternoon with me.
