What Would Siddhartha Do?



Lama Surya Das (the spitting image of Richard Gere, might I add) sets out to answer the question How Would the Buddha Date?

The essence of Buddhist relationship is to cultivate the cling-free relationship...I notice that children let go of anger and would rather be happy than right [and eat dirt], unlike so many of us adults. Like them, my dog [through an interpretive dance] reminds me that love is a verb, not a noun. [As in, "Stop loving my leg."]
