[Buddha-l] Glass Buddha

[Franz Metcalf]

Katherine et al.,

tuttejiorg.wordpress *has* to be a parody, otherwise the world will have become too dark--too dark altogether.

By contrast, I've had a little back-and-forth with Bodhipaksha and he had no air of the conman, at all. Quite the opposite; he seemed unusually technologically savvy as well as grounded in the dharma. In fact, I think he's pretty much the perfect candidate for a glass and I'm glad the fundraising has now exceeded his needed $1633. Let's see what he comes up with.

In the last five years or so, I've visited the Wildmind website quite often.  I've downloaded free articles mp3's from that site and Bodhipaksha (sp.?) doesn't seem to be a conman.  Maybe at my age I just don't take to high-tech as quickly or perhaps Bodhipaksha has yielded to temptation.  I don't know what to make of this.
