    Zendog, aren't you worried we're showing off, and not being Buddhists at heart?

    xen insanity by design

    but if you just radiate your inner heart, is that showing off?

    Nope.
    He who worries suffers twice .

    As for being a buddhist at heart.. I guess it's lucky that my heart forgives me my own indulgences.

    Indulgence is weakness

    I'll give you that.

    It is open to but not restrained by tao, the sea of law and whatever it finds pleasing.

    Above all else guard the heart

    Regards

    Hi. I've probably got this wrong, but it may be that there is one 'incarnation' of a Buddha but many 'emanations' - forms which are taken by that Buddha to teach us and reach us. I think the number of 'emanations' is unlimited.

    However, according to what I've read only an enlightened being can recognise another, so you will never know if anyone on MAP is barking mad or a truly realised Bodhisattva! ;)
