My sister in law ran away from home when she was 16. Some time later, she ended up in Japan and landed a job with Panasonic teaching English to their  executives. She stayed in Japan long enough to change her moderate Christian upbringing attitude, and  her name, to a Japanese name. She also became a Buddhist and to this day, 50 years later, she is a dedicated Taiko drummer. Not sure what Buddhism and drumming have to do with the whole scene.

 Kimisan is a cool old chick.  I like her.

To repress their sexual desire many Buddhists take up smoking.

I wouldn't like to be a disciple of the Dalai Lama.
You may be required to show your faith by eating his shit and drinking his urine.

What a coincidence! About the time I quit smoking, my libido went to hell. Well not so much my libido but essential parts of my anatomy became hopelessly lazy.

Buddhists are right after all.
Their karma ran over my dogma.
