Dogs of C-Kennel by Mick & Mason Mastroianni for August 20, 2024

Will, you’re close. It’s not Zen, but it is Buddhist.

That was Zen, this is now.

The literal meaning in English has been expressed as “praise to the jewel in the lotus”, or as a declarative aspiration, possibly meaning “I in the jewel-lotus”. Padma is the Sanskrit for the Indian lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) and mani for “jewel”, as in a type of spiritual “jewel” widely referred to in Buddhism.

OHWA

TAA

AHGOOS

EYE-AM.

I stick to to believe that Will anyway would not kill Kenny. He likes him to much.

I didn’t realize Padme had an ancient meaning.

Reminds me of a strip in the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers underground comics when one of them was instructed by the other to chant “Oh-Wa Ta-Goo Siam” to achieve peace of mind.

Took him a minute to realize they tricked him into saying “Oh what a goose I am”.

If it works……it works!!!!!

Whatever, but the translation fits.

Jai guru deva om. Nothing’s going to change my world.

On please, meditate on.

Human Feed Me!

OK ….. Will …… in that case ……. go back to chanting …… :)

Thank you M and M! I learned something today : )
