Funny short buddhists stories

by kiki2u @ 2006-06-10 - 11:28:07

1.Compassion with an umbrella:
A Western Buddhist woman was In india, studying with her teacher. She was riding with another woman friend in a rickshaw-like carriage, when they were attacked by a man on the street. In the end, the attacker only succeeded in frightening the women, but the Buddhist woman was quite upset by the event and told her teacher so. She asked him what she should have done - what would have been the appropriate, Buddhist response.
The teacher said very simply, "You should have very mindfully and with great compassion whacked the attacker over the head with your umbrella." XX( :P

2.Two Drunk monks:
I took my son, Ian to a farewell party for some friends returning to their country. Ian, age 9, wisely observed that some of the participants drank too much (I was not among those). On our 1 1/2 hour journey home, I spoke to him about the importance of moderation.
-After thinking for sometime, Ian said, "Dad, I have a story that I just made up."
"There were these two Buddhist monks who had about 13 beers each. One had to walk home quite some distance.
-'Will you be all right to walk home?', the one asked
-'Of course, I will take the Middle Path,' he replied." :))

Push Me, Pull You

."A number of bank robberies are hampered because of holdup notes that include the robber's name and phone number, the lack of a weapon, an ineffective disguise, and the like; usually these robbers don't make it out the door. But in the case of one aspiring bank robber, he didn't even make it in the door.

Employees of the Durham, North Carolina, Federal Savings Bank became frightened when they saw a man in a sweatshirt with the hood pulled tightly over his face and pounding on the door. Why couldn't he get in - was the door locked? Nope. The man was trying to push the door open, not having notice the Pull sign above the handle. The unidentified man was linked to another attempted robbery in Durham. The crook failed at the robbery attempt, too, when he again attempted to push open a pull door."

- This is a true story, is included on police humour of course :)), as indeed the man had problems to open the door!
...well, we really feel stupid with this of Pull and Push, :)) as for lots of countries in their language, like mine and spanish too, push to us means the opposite!
And it always happens to me when i go to UK..but i already laugh a lot when it happens!..because i'm very aware of it, just is so insctintive or so :)) that i can't avoid it! As when i arrive in my country and i read at the airport the word "Puxe" (we pronnounce it like "Push") then, funny, i do the opposite! I "push" instead of "puxe"=pull!
:)) Mind and instintcs are a funny indeed!
