![]() Although there are several Benihana Tiki Mugs that are called Buddha mugs, often in error, we think that this one (and a minor variation of it without the fan-shaped halo) is the only one that is truly deserving of the name, because it depicts the real Siddhartha Gautama, also known as Gautama Buddha, the founder of Buddhism! Buddha taught ethics and correct understanding, questioning the average person's notions of divinity and salvation, stating that even gods are subject to karma, too. He taught that the Buddah is not divine, but is solely a guide and teacher for sentient beings who must tread the path of Nirvana themselves to attain the spiritual awakening called Bodhi, and see truth and reality as it truly is. So, get out your Buddha mug, fill it with an exotic rum-soaked cocktail, have a few sips, sit back, close your eyes, say "Om," and meditate on just how cool your enormous collection of Benihana Tiki Mugs is, dude! | |
