Here is some advice for having lunch with monks:<BR/><BR/>- Take deep breaths and close your eyes now and then - they will be sure you are having a spiritual experience.<BR/><BR/>- If you have to mention their vows, stick to poverty and obedience - if you mention chastity, they might become uncomfortable. If they begin to look at you with lust, either enjoy it or quietly say, "Boys, I'd really like you to think of your mothers and look at my feet now." (This is advice an Indian mahatma gave me once ... not his feet of course.)<BR/><BR/>- If the conversation lags, mention that one of your favourite movies is Sean of the Dead. It may get a new conversation going.<BR/><BR/>- If they are not much fun to be with, ask them when they think the first woman Pope will be named.<BR/><BR/>- Be yourself of course.<BR/><BR/>Now, if they happen to be Buddhist monks rather than Christian, the instructions are different.<BR/><BR/>My 8 years as a monastic was based on Indian teachings - interesting time.Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15148485566444804108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19190712.post-1137272856849318352006-01-14T15:07:00.000-06:002006-01-14T15:07:00.000-06:00Vonnegut's "The Sirens of Titan":"The banner at th...Vonnegut's "The Sirens of Titan":<BR/><BR/>"The banner at the head of the mast before them was thin air."Kathleen Callonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08119999393761827826noreply@blogger.com
