Hi qaplatlhinganmaH -

So THAT's what happened!

Hmm...

[qaplatlhinganmaH]

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.

Aww Jamespower666 - don't get so upset!

I hear that he makes you very angry indeed, but he's only BW is having a litlle self promoting/.self-deprecating fun with his niece. If I were you, I'd stay well away - he clearly puts your Autonomic Nervous System WELL out of wack.

[Jamespower666]

Further evidence that brad warner is a cunt. I cannot believe what a stupid fucking dip shit he is . The sooner this guy gets an ounce of perception and stops being such a two faced, pretentious fat fuck the better, I am going to speak to you tube about him being such an offensice tosser using age girls to advertise his crappy books.

[abrahamtaniya]

is tht him?

[missxbeloved]

yep thats him.

[theblindtroll]

That was torturous.

Try to get a working script next time.

Pleeeeeeze.

[swearingej]

Jimmy Swaggart, TD Jakes, Brad Warner. Anyone can cash in on religion. People will line up to buy their books without examining the kind of lives that these people lead. Swaggart with his hooker, Jakes with the money, and Warner with the fame. I mean come on, a Zen priest that listens to punk rock music and is into recreational drugs????

[sshelton1015]

Thank goodness we have YOU to sit in judgement!!

[cwalwanis]

I don't know where you get the idea that Brad Warner gets high and it is also very odd that you think that Zen Buddhists can't listen to punk rock.

[spud80y]

a spiritual teacher would have no credibilkity with me if he didn't have a passing familiarity with punk rock and illicit substances - in this case BW is very opposed to drugs

[Zenboy23]

If you think that Zen and that kind of attitude dont go along google "Ikkyu", that zen master would have heard the same critics that people like Warner hear nowadays...but back in the middle age :P

[wearealltubes]

Um, if you want to examine the kind of life that Brad Warner leads, why don't you read his books? He is more honest and open about his life - warts and all - than any other "spiritual teacher" I have come across. And he is strongly against using drugs!!!!

[mixmastermikepwt]

LOL @ swearingej

Judgeing some one on the type of music they listen to is quite close minded and juvenile, in my opinion.

Maybe he used drugs as a teenager or young adult, or maybe not. Why does that matter?

If anything, he now knows that drugs are not the answer. Thats something I look for in "religious figure". Experience!

If you don't like him, don't read his books. Don't watch his videos on youtube.

It's simple stuff. It is cute how you are trying to bad mouth him though

[partpopstar]

ya he really likes rock and stuff..... it was hilarious i was listening to britnet spears and now he likes her old song do somethin!!! lol...hes the best uncle in the world

[nrobnas65]

Brad is a huge Kiss fan. I liked his book sit down. It was really funny and of course you can learn something from it.

[CandyGirIl]

This little flake has the opportunity to have in front of her an ordained zen master who at the same time is like the cooolest guy on earth and she fukin ruins it i woulda hit her over the head with the book

[partpopstar]

wow candy girl you do kno im 12 and he would never do that 2 mee my uncle is wayyy to cool

[mixmastermikepwt]

wow sounds like candygirl needs to do some zazen

[CleverDjembe]

Heyyyy... she's cute! I'd teach her a thing or two...

[4949oz]

heyyy... guess what? that's someone daughter you're talking about...

Hey guess what else? that's called pedophilia and guess what else? that's illegal. I hope you can sort out as to why you have such sick urges

[CleverDjembe]

Thanks, kind soul! Everyday I learn something new and meet fascinating people like you who have the uncanny ability to take humor too seriously. Keep it up :-)

[spencersghost]
