Buddhist Scandal
May. 12th, 2012 12:00 pmSix leaders from South Korea's largest Buddhist order have resigned after secret video footage showed the monks playing high-stakes poker, drinking and smoking.
The scandal broke just days before Koreans observe a national holiday to celebrate the birth of Buddha, the holiest day of the religion's calendar.

Not as bad as the Catholic church, but it must be hard to keep one's faith in the spiritual. One wants to live a little in this material world and let the animal spirits run a little wild. It might even be good to have a few lapses in one's life.

“Of the millions, I, too, was potentially everything at birth. I, too, was stunted, narrowed, warped, by my environment, my outcroppings of heredity.”
-- Sylvia Plath, The Journals, 1950
Well, as an upper-middle-class American white girl, I don’t know if she has a lot to complain about in the way of environment and heredity. She seems to have gotten just about all the good fortune one can hope to get in this world. But, yeah, loneliness is hell for everyone, and this is another excerpt from the same entry we have been mining for the last post or two or three, in which she is suffering the post-Thanksgiving blues.
