Intoxicating… (Or not?)
Boy, this story about Japanese monks trying new approaches to bring youth under their wings sure has been popping up a lot over the few months. I’m not gonna rehash it here, but suffice it to say this story’s been recycled a lot.
And hey, no need to rehash anyway — not when good ol’ Nate at Precious Metal is getting to the heart of the matter in a different and personal way. Check it out and lend your voice.

I think it was a Simpsons episode. There was a Christian rock band and someone said, “They’re not making Christianity better. They’re just making rock ‘n roll worse!”
The real test, perhaps, is not what it does for the Dharma or this fellow’s temple, but rather, What does it do for hip hop?!
Seriously, though, as a Mahayana priest, I have to ask, “Does it work?” And if it works, then I say go for it.
