Today. On my walk. By a retired doctor! But, he probably doesn’t even realize.

What I find intriguing is that Buddhists don’t object to such desecration in anyway. I find that amazing.

Yes, that folks think it is also OK to disrespect the image of the Buddha, especially his head, is another matter. BUT, if there was even SOME push-back some might think BETTER of making and/or buying these products.

Can you see the image of any other religious leader being disrespected in this manner.

What I saw today was a PLANTING POT!

The Buddha’s head being used as a planting pot!

Come on. That is NOT right.

I am NOT a Buddhist. I am NOT even religious. As some of you know, I am a Refined, Born-Again, Heathen. But, I respect those that are religious. I know a few Buddhists. That they don’t seem to CARE confounds I.

PLEASE, PLEASE do NOT tell me that Buddhists are pacifists. Please, don’t make me laugh. Look at the Buddhist instigated violence in Sri Lanka, Myanmar & Thailand.
