Just adding some lightheartedness to the forums!

If my Chihuahua lays his head in my lap during Meditation practice is that...

Dog 'n' Zazen?

And the classic favorite of most:

What does a Zen cow say?

From the Daily Show, I present to you some dark humor: Bodhisattva Bush (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2lc8h_bodhisattva-bush-the-daily-show-vo_news)

Funnily enough, probably the least misconception-ridden presentation of Buddhism I've ever seen on national television. He even does a proper gassho!

Speaking of which,

Gassho.

A student asks his master, "what happens after we die?"

The Master answers,"I don't know."

The student becomes frustrated and says. "I thought you where a Zen Master!"

The Master replies, "I am, but not a dead Zen Master."

'Change comes from within.'

Dear All,

I love these jokes but, 'oh my Gautama,' some of these are as old as the Buddha ... and I don't mean Shakyamuni Buddha. I mean the Buddha two Kalpas before him.

Okay, let me try one Zen joke:




How was that?

Not a buddhist joke but is in Osho's "Buddha his life and teachings"

The pope heard that a certain lady in Ireland had produced ten children, so he sent one of his cardinals to grant her his blessings. When he met the lady, the cardinal was disgusted to learn that she was not Catholic. "DO YOU MEAN TO SAY," he thundered, "that I have COME ALL THIS WAY TO MEET A SEX-MAD PROTESTANT?"

A Zen master once said to me, "Do the opposite of whatever I tell you."
So I didn't.

A yogi goes into his dentist office. Just as the dentist is about to give him a shot of Novocaine, the Yogi puts his hand up and refuses, "No thanks, I transcend dental medication."

One would think that, after 2500 years, we would have a few more excellent jokes than the "old standards!"

If I hear the "hot dog saleman" one more time ... I am going to become a Presbyterian!:p

We do have a few "Buddhist stand-ups" and such ... (sorry, I have not looked back at the for awhile, no promises on content) ... gassho1

Two zen monks are sitting in a Japanese bath. The first monk says to the second monk, “Pass the soap.“ The second monk replies, “No soap. Radio.“

A house, because they enjoy living in the present.
