by admin March 29, 2014 Comments

Going through rituals, ceremonies, touching “sacred” objects or even going on pilgrimages to holy places won’t make you a better or more authentic/orthodox Buddhist. It certainly doesn’t mean that the more time you spend at Lumbini, the more pious you are. Alas, some will never understand.

Post by Buddhism.
