Elmer Gantry Rides Again -

Welcome Echart Tolle , who writes and teaches zen stirs in a little Christian mysticism and calls it his own. Stand aside for Genpo Roshi (Dennis Merzel) master of all schools of Zen and none. Just Grab your credit card and your on your way to enlightenment.
Americans have always been susceptible to the instant gratification of buying enlightenment. It also seems the more these guys charge the faster the suckers line up. Buddha said Buddhism is a raft to carry us across the river. I doubt he meant a huge pleasure barge with room service and flashing lights ,dancing girls and 10 dollar drinks in the bar.
In the enightenment supermarket - its buyer beware..
