Dharma-Burger: Target discounts the Awakened One
Thanks to reader Ben Hutchison who sent on this pic. He writes:
I found this Buddha statue in the discount section of Target for $2.50 and thought it'd be appropriate.
Yeah it is, Ben.
Yeah. It is.
...Ben also sent another little note, not Target-related, but in a similar spirit:
I thought I'd pass along this little tidbit about my last job. I worked for a company called Karma, Inc. I wasn't even aware that the company was called Karma when I applied, but it turns out that my boss was screwed over by his partner at his last company which resulted in him losing everything. So in a split-second decision he decided to name his company Karma because of the "bad karma" he'd received thus far. He wasn't really interested in any form of buddhism or hinduism or anything like that.
I think he may have regrets about naming the company that now because no one understands the significance.
It was oddly auspicious for me, though!
Thanks for the tidbit, Ben. Stay in touch as the wheel rolls on.
