I am just back from Vietnam where we visited a Buddhist Nunnery for a meditation session. Naturally I took the opportunity to wear the t-shirt! Instead of just sitting and meditating the nuns played an American based chanting track put together by some strange folk indeed. Apart from the very happy clappy chanting there were sirens going off in the background, what sounded like a fight going on and other weird sounds you thought they would have edited out. Needless to say I was too busy trying not to laugh to do any meditating but they were lovely ladies and they did let me help make a great vegetarian lunch we shared. I also found out I can't sit in the lotus position without experiencing severe pain. What chance is there for me!
