On Buddhist Saints...




The many Buddhas and sutras come in a wide variety of expressions and guises. Some of them in the shape of the friendly benign looking saint of rounder proportions and a gentler appearance while others have a more menacing demeanour. The feeling I get from them is that there are many ways of reaching "Awakening" or Enlightenment. And there are. Like most Christian religions there are a wide variety of schools teaching the Buddhist truth.
