One practitioner extols the virtues of being married to someone who doesn’t practice at all
I’m a Buddhist who doesn’t play especially well with other Buddhists. Buddhism often attracts the granola crowd and that’s not my thing. I may be striving to wake up and achieve perfect peace, but I’m not interested in dewy-eyed, soft-spoken conversations about one love and constant compassion.
My life is loud; I dig horror, mayhem, blood, and guts. My humor is aggressive and unapologetic. The quest for enlightenment will hopefully quiet my mind, ease my suffering, and fill me with kindness, but my personality will probably never exude these things. I may work for the benefit of all sentient beings, but I’m going to do it with heavy metal, trash talk, and fart jokes.
