Dalai World

      This blog can't decide what it finds more disturbing about this article:

• this: "Newsweek magazine, after a lengthy interview with him in 1997, reported that he keeps the plastic-wrapped, preserved corpse of his favourite tutor seated in a room in his house." (Gulp! *Dr J tugs uncomfortably at his collar hoping no one else gets the same idea*)
  
• or this: "Pointing to his groin, he added, 'So my instrument is useless. It has no purpose, no meaning.'" (How terribly, terribly sad!)

I don't think I'll ever be able to look at him the same way again. Oh, god, don't let me end up like a couch in a (stereotypical) Italian living room....
