Dharma Beatdown begging bowl

Post by JigokuBosatsu »

Well, sponsorship bowl at least. I'm going to school to be a dharma teacher, and as part of my training will be challenging the best and brightest creative types to a round of dharma combat. Then I will be putting out a book about it, entitled Dharma Beatdown. If you'd like to help sponsor this process, check out the kickstarter link here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/10 ... -it-happen

And I hope perhaps that some of you sharp folks might be interested in participating in the combat...

Thanks for lookin'!!!!

The Buddhist equivalent of a preacher. I won't get followed around by an Irish vampire and hot blonde, tho.

I love the meme pic of Linji. That's fantastic.

Honestly though I'm curious what you think noteworthy dharma combat would even look like with someone that doesn't get it. I'd think there'd be a lot of "what" and "huh" or the ubiquitous and deadly HESITATION, whereupon you'd slap them. :p

I don't fucking know, man! But I guess that's why I want to try it. I have a feeling, if I do it right, that I will get stomped as often as I stomp.

Hardly seems worth it, then.
