Paatii!


So I was talking the other night with my tai Buddhist roommate -who I love by the way- and we were talking about Zen... well, I was studying for the midterm and talking about Zen, she asked me If I knew Ikkyu-san’s cartoon, and yes, I couldn't resist telling her innocent being about some omitted facts about this priest’s life (like the blind girlfriend and the erotic poetry thing and all) and she got really stunned! It made me realize how crazy this people was xD but in a good way, I kept on telling her about other priests we’ve studied because I thought it'd be really interesting to see her reactions after all she is a Buddhist and suddenly it hit me!.
How about getting some of them together?
We talked about that and the whole situation suddenly turned hilarious and well we end up laughing with the absurd possibilities. Anyway, here it is... a Rinzai Soto Obaku veggie bosatsu Pure land party.
Smile.

Nice set of Zen masters! I like the cat scene, and the hitting-the-old lady scene, and Gutei's finger ....
