There is nothing profound nor enlightening in this guy's speech. You could get more depth from a tourist brochure. He is basically just another white guy who went to japan, jumped through hoops, and was rewarded with a japanese costume. If you are looking for enlightenment, look somewhere else.

Guy needs to learn about these beliefs insted of just giving his obviously un learned opinion. He seems to be trying to play these other beliefs off as unimportant compared to what he is trying to spew.

The new syncretic form of Buddhism expanded fully into Eastern Asia soon after these events. The Kushan monk Lokaksema visited the Han Chinese court at Loyang in 178 CE, and worked there for ten years to make the first known translations of Mahayana texts into Chinese. The new faith later spread into Korea and Japan, and was itself at the origin of Zen.
