A young monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to helping the other monks in copying the old canons and laws of the church by hand.
He notices, however, that all of the monks are copying from copies, not from the original manuscript. So, the new monk goes to the head abbot to question this, pointing out that if someone made even a small error in the first copy, it would never be picked up! In fact, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies.
The head monk, says, "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son."
He goes down into the dark caves underneath the monastery where the original manuscripts are held as archives in a locked vault that hasn't been opened for hundreds of years. Hours go by and nobody sees the old abbot.
So, the young monk gets worried and goes down to look for him. He sees him banging his head against the wall and wailing, "We missed the " R" ! , we missed the " R" !"
His forehead is all bloody and bruised and he is crying uncontrollably. The young monk asks the old abbot, "What's wrong, father?" With A choking voice, the old abbot replies, "The word was... CELEBRATE !!! "
lol...............

A paratrooper was scared to jump. His instructor told him, "If anything goes wrong, say, `Buddha oh Buddha' and you will be saved."
The paratrooper got so scared that he forgot to pull his rip cord. So he said, "Buddha oh Buddha," and a hand came out of the sky and saved him. Then he said, "Thank God," and was dropped.

Well friends, i wish i dont preach. I just try to adjust my visions of suffering animals with the fact that some people, including shaolin monks, just love to eat them. Ever seen that video on Kentucky Fried Chicken on www.petatv.com? I just dont understand why people will continue to support that. That s more a question than a preach i believe.
About KFC and martial art, it makes me think that if american people didnt move more their ass about Chile it is because they feed on chicken unable to move, like in KFC factories or battery eggs.
About enlightnement i hope you believe at least in a possibility to be non violent. Thats my view on enlightnment. Take it from Ghandi. A great martial artis wasnt he?

Well, if you think the chicken at KFC is bad for you, try the fried chicken that you get at Jollibee's in the Philippines.
Or, any food there, for that matter.Experienced Community organizer. Yeah, let's choose him to run the free world. It will be historic. What could possibly go wrong...

Ppl should eat to the best of resource and facility according priority, and where there's no better realistic soution, without demanding that everyone become a high level bahai or have to suffer moses's freedom seekers emancipation ritual of starvation and hardship, and remembering that not everyone has budget or geographic luxury to get food otherwise, I just dont think you understand practicality.
but then, neither do alot of ppl. now get why enlightenment and even supposedly to boddhisattvism and beyond is so god damming rare.
all I see in that post is collective ignorance .

and you're a violent hearted little kid who struggles for terrority , because of lack of understanding of how to employ harmonious co-existance and knowing the difference and has no idea wtf he exptrapolates about.
If you dont have a masters degree or ph.d, you're not exactly the picture of language expertise anyway. and even if you did have one, it still doesn't qualify you to understand dharma. and thaat would likely be why you take the option to be a sh*t head little brat instead of sorting your sh*t out. no problem. you're not the only one in the world like this. we already got that.

A monk on his journey home came to the banks of a wide river. Staring hopelessly at the great obstacle in front of him, he pondered for hours on just how to cross such a wide barrier.
Just as he was about to give up his journey, he saw a great teacher on the other side of the river.
The monk yells over to the teacher. "Oh master, can you tell me how to get to the other side of this river?"
The teacher ponders for a moment, looks up and down the river and yells back. "You already are on the other side."

Well, here in China, many chicken live out in the wild. I always make this little experiment with truth is try to catch one. Well they always run away. So why should i use force to catch one? I would not like someone use force to catch me.
About KFC i heard the Dalai Lama asked them not to settle in Tibet. But, with respect, shaolin monks probably know better.
Lotus, i m not sure to understand your saying but about cycles, what s wrong with vegetarianism. Hindu people have been vegetarians for ages with quite some good results. And again vegetarianism is space and energy saving, that could help mother Earth.
