He just dun wanna do miracles for the sake of it.. like turning a chicken into a swan. Or fry a chicken without fire and oil. But he did turn water into fine wine, he is so cool I wanna bring him to my parties! All I have to order is water. Stupe is correct on that we confused on buddhism and taoism or confucious teachings. Many of the things I do, like paying respect to the dead, light joss stick are all not buddhism I think. Buddhism is like a way of like, the way of the JEDI. AM I right?

Must see the bone then take effort to see the teaching and finally beable to see the Lord (Can I called him Lord because his wisdom is far more superior then mine and not because I own him something?).
