@Aisling "Some call it an ideology. Others say it's a religion," Vladislaus said.

"I think I'll have a cheeseburger," Toma said. "And some coke maybe. I hope they'll have that."

@Aisling "It is most commonly called Buddhism," Vladislaus answered.

"We'll have to see. They change the menu from time to time," Toma answered.

@Aisling "It's not a philosophy. Philosophies try to explain the world," Vladislaus explained.

"Let's see what they got at the restaurant today. I'm hungry as well," Toma said.

@Aisling "That's a part of the message. Equanimity also means that you take the things the way they are. If the liquid in the glass is soy sauce, it is soy sauce. If it's water, it's water," Vladislaus said.

@Aisling Dracula looked at them and smiled. "Oh, yes, they are."

"Let me tell you a story about this," Vladislaus said. "In the old Japan, there once was an earthquake. After that earthquake, a Zen master and his students were in the kitchen of their partly destroyed monastery. The master spoke to his student, "Now, you've seen how a Zen master acts in such a situation. You saw that I didn't panic. Instead I took your arm and guided you here, to the kitchen. This is the safest place in the cloister, and, as you can see, it is still standing. But still, I got a little bit scared. I had to drink a big glass of water, which I wouldn't do in other situations." The student said nothing and just smiled instead. The master asked, "What is so funny about that?" And the student answered, "Master, what you just drank wasn't a big glass of water but a big glass of soy sauce.""

@Aisling Dracula nod. "Yes."

"I'm not afraid of pain either, and that's good," Vladislaus said via telepathy. "Equanimity is the greatest freedom one can have."

@Aisling Yes :) I could use it to see where I can put up an altar in my room...

@Aisling "That's very kind of you, but he needs a child's heart," Dracula carefully explained. "An adult's heart is too big for him."

"I'm not afraid of anything either, although I've had bad accidents and felt true fear," Vladislaus spoke via telepathy.

@Aisling I'd say that to get rid of poverty, we need to get rid of this 'I only give if you give me back' way of thinking...

The site looks cool :)

@Aisling "I might be able to sit on the horse, but not to rock with it," Toma answered. "That's too exhausting. I've tried it before."

"Back at my times, female riders had totake on a different position than male riders," Dracula began to tell. "They were wearing dresses or skirts, which made them unable to sit like men. That's why they had something that is called the sidesaddle:"



"I think that's a position you can take. When riding a real horse, you'll need a special saddle for that, but we still have such saddles at the castle."
