Bodhgaya is the center of the Buddhist universe. Buddha found enlightment here under a tree. There are temples for every offspring of Buddhism (Chinese Buddhist temple, Indonesian Buddhist temple, Thai Buddist temple … you get the idea … I couldn’t find a Californian temple btw) and a big temple complex around an offspring of an offspring of an offspring of the tree who stood there 2600 years ago when Buddha was there. Except for that Bodhgaya is desert with a couple of tents. It’s hot and dusty all day and fucking freezing all night. You either get enlighted here or run away.
That’s why I enrolled into a Buddhist meditation retreat starting today and running until the 1st of January. So I will spend New Year’s Eve in meditation instead of partying for a change. 😉
wtf is californian buddhism? did you get enlighted?, holy fox?
Yeah I’m totally enlighted now, I lost my anger and my moody self. I don’t take any drugs or eat meat. Light is coming out of my ass. 😉
let your light shine in my face! *errrm*
