[Buddha-l] Peace ritual

[Curt Steinmetz]

"Sri Sri Sri" is far from being an obscure appellation (no more so than 
Herr Doktor Professor). Ravi Shankar has been referred to in this way 
for man years (probably well over a decade, maybe two, maybe more).

I have known of double-Sri gurus and swamis, but this is my first encounter with a triple-Sri. I wonder if there is an upper limit to how many Sris one can have before a name. If not, we could witness an outbreak of Sri-inflation. Quadruple-Sris, then Quintuple-Sris, then decade-Sris and score-Sris and century-Sris. And before you know it, we'll be witnessing mega-Sris and giga-Sris, perhaps even tera-Sris (although I think that would be excessive).
