Your Buddhism is as spooky as your Native Culture.
When Buddhism travelled from India to Tibet, it absorbed the Tibetan religion and culture which added the mandalas and the Tibetan Book of the Dead.
When Buddhism settled in China it got the demons and dragons and immortals of Chinese myths and legends.
When Buddhism came to America, we didn't add monsters, we tried to understand the monsters of Asia...but those are hard for us to accept, just as our ghosts and goblins are difficult for Asians to take seriously.
So American Buddhists aren't very spooky.

Podcast 17
of the Zen Buddhist Podcast
hosted by Buddha Zhen
of the shaolinZEN.org Cybertemple.
Buddha Zhen Shen-Lang,
founder of the shaolinZEN.org CyberTemple
shares his unique Chan-style Zen Buddhism
discussing religions, relationships, and relativity.

Dharma Online: Shaolin Zen CyberTemple
BUDDHISM DHARMA FOR TODAY:
"Let's Go To Church"
After spending the morning in church, reading the Holy Bible with his daughter, Buddha Zhen discusses the genocide, theft, and obedience that God instructed his chosen people, the Hebrews.
Buddha Zhen also shares some words of wisdom from a 96 year old Mason, he'd been chatting with the night before. Still having financial troubles, the elderly man reassured Buddha Zhen that he should continue to do the work he's "best" at, and that sleeping well at night is worth more than a Rolls Royce.

8. -- MONTHLY ANNOUNCEMENT --
Buddha Zhen event: 12 Step 12 Week Kung Fu Bootcamp
Buddha Zhen launches new Kung Fu program on Wednesday evenings at CV Park in LaCrescenta, California.
This 3-month, or 12-week program, teaches ONE of the TWELVE Tantui of the 12 Tantui of Shaolin Chi Mantis.
These 12 Step Tantui were reordered by Buddha Zhen's master, Dr. Kam Yuen in the 1970s before BZ was a student of Shifu Yuen at Tai Mantis in Redondo Beach, California.
Grandmaster Kam Yuen learned them from Grandmaster Wong Jack Man in San Francisco, shortly after Shifu Wong's fight with Bruce Lee.
Shifu Wong Jack Man was the founder of the San Francisco Jing Mo Association schools, which were the resulting Kung Fu academies sponsored by the Chinese government after Jet Li's portrayal of the Jing Mo's Founder in the movie, FEARLESS.
Each month is a new event or seminar series:
