Oh, and to Blake:

Glad you've taken this step! I did some reporting on a Cambodian Buddhist monastery here in the States, and in the summer they would occasionally get some interest from lay citizens who wanted to try out the lifestyle of prayer and meditation that their monks observed.

One boy was an American youth of 14 and he shaved his head and his eyebrows and took up the saffron robes. He went through the two-week training program, and then he returned to the secular world again. He thought about returning to do more study but could not commit to becoming ordained just yet. The monks were fine with that.

Do whatever you need to find a purpose with your life. And if you actually do find it, be sure to let the rest of us know. That reminds me of the story I would tell my students when they were in awe of my mad chopsticks using skills. I told them that I travelled to a Tibetan monestary (I guess I can't say this part anymore ) to study the use of chopsticks. I spent 3 years at the monestary studying chopsticks. The first year: meditating on the chopsticks. The second: I could use 1. By the third year, I was allowed to use 2. Had I stayed a fourth year, I could use 3! My master could use 8!

If not for that success, I wouldn't have had the self-confidence to expand "changing a corner of the gaming world" into "changing a corner of the world".

You know who are to blame for me being an attention whore, now go blame them! Misused it is, then.

I studied Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism some while I was in the service. Chanted "Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo" through the Gohonzon.
