There are people who are putting a lot of effort into presenting the dharma to Western culture in ways that would actually get it to be taken seriously. Pop gurus, cult leaders, and mush meditation celebrities are really making these people's job harder than it needs to be. 1/3

Buddhism is too new in Western society. When it’s been here another 100 years, we’ll be able to have an intelligent discussion about it.

Replying to @shaunbartone
I'm afraid we might not have 100 years. The only way we'll make the dharma relevant is by ditching Buddhism. We don't have to consult with the Buddhists or get their blessings. They don't own the dharma.
