Clickbait "mysterious" but a good article. And @JustGeorge , you don't need to travel to Bhutan, just to California I know this is not your path but I could not resist tagging you.

Well, it actually could be on my path.

I'm going to pick up @John53 's pool on the way.

Interesting the little gems you can find hidden around.

Iowa has a Buddhist center(and I think a small monastery) with a giant Buddha shrine nestled in the cornfields a few miles outside of a small city.

The temple I prefer is in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by corn.

Interesting article. It mentioned this location used to have an insane asylum once built there.

On 700 acres, that's an average of 14 Bhuddas per acre.

Make your path as open as you can, it let's you see more of what you know and don't and help you navigate reality by understanding it's complexities.

I'm sure I'll see a lot on my walk to Bhutan.

That is big, 700 acres.... my late mother-in-law, who was a Buddhist. called any buddhist temple she was went to in this country (USA) small. I always said what do you expect, you had thousands of years in China to build them, we have only had about 100..... she might have liked this one

I used to be an art theapist in a maximum-security unit for the criminally insane. It was an interesting job.

Goddamn my man, that sounds long and heavy. Fare thee well.
