Tiger Woods: Buddhism Will Guide Me

February 19, 2010: So there were a number of odd moments in Tiger Woods' not especially enlightening public apology, but one that stands out is his claim that he will be returning not just to golf, but to the principles of Buddhism.

Brent Hume is not going to be happy with this!!!!

The Buddha said that it's better to be a stream enterer than to be a god.

There are 4 stages of enlightenment. A stream entere or sotapanna is the 1st stage of enlightenment

One has to eradicate greed, anger and delusion to be enlightened

@bobaeappa A joke? Well it comes across like typical Christian dogma. The we're-right-and-everyone-else-­is-wrong type stuff doesn't wash with Buddhists. Buddhism sees itself as compatible with other spiritual systems - there's none of the our-way-is-the-only-way stuff in it. It isn't even concerned with the existence or non-existence of God. If you find a God (or gods) to be useful concepts to you, then that's ok too, but ultimately they aren't the point of Buddhism.
