    There's a large-ish statue of Hotei in one our local sushi places. I always quiz my wife with "Who is that?" when we enter. hahahah

    Thank you Jundo.

      Hi, Jundo,

      "nothing is needed to be changed, because from the really beginning, all is the Buddha itself" and "actually there are a lot of things in this world need to be changed"

      these two ideas seems to be different, or contradiction. But I was really inspired when you said that both was right.

      thanks Jundo

        Hi Shui Di,

        You show up around here about as often as Maitreya comes to earth! But, both are wise and always welcome!

        Good to hear from you, my friend.

                  This was an uplifting talk, both that the Buddha to come was once a slow learner, and that there is hope for the future. Thank you, Jundo!

                  I have a lot to learn; take anything I say that sounds like teaching with a grain of salt.
