Bud-Hism was established over two thousands years ago by a very wise cat called Bud. Bud was known as the Asleepened One, for he had attained immense wisdom by taking an abundance of naps. The Supreme Cat Bud reached such an advanced state of Enlightenment, that he was able to sleep twenty-eight hours a day and still have time for other important duties like napping and eating.
A key teaching of Bud, is to have no regrets about the past, not to brood over the future but to live in the present. This is summed up as, ‘Don’t mourn your past lives. Don’t worry about your next life. Relax in the present and the future will be purrfect.’
Our main lesson for today was to learn the ‘Seven Paths to Enlightenment’:
