The Junkie and the Monk
NMADDP
SUN Diego, California Veteran
Read the thread related Buddhist soldier made me think of this guy's picture.
A gangster (see attached picture) can be a Buddhist too, why not a soldier
.
Stand-up comedian Mike DeStefano (1966-2011).
Listen to his talk below title:
"The Junkie and the Monk"
http://themoth.org/posts/stories/the-junkie-and-the-monk
(After a series of devastating blows, a comedian decides to take his own life.)
...
before he turned to Buddhism, he thought a Lama was some animal (llama) from south America:).
...
he also talked about a Lama gave him the tonglen.
...
Enjoy
