In Japan, no need to wonder at all. The monastaries were built to 
ensure that the older brothers and younger brothers could 
always "study" together as easily as possible.

Naw man, she was a real hot 18 year old chic, beauty of the land. 
That is why I wonder about Buddha and his 'disciple brothers'.

Real bitch.  I felt enlightened every time she

When does 'eventually' occur? There never really were attachments to 
family, business, money, home, everything. Try to hold on, and it 
all turns to dust anyway. It is first a matter of stopping 
pretending.

(Interesting word, 'pretending' or pre-tending; preparing ourselves 
to care for our assumed future reality, when it arrives, according 
to our rigid definition of it. Doesn't sound like much fun, does 
it?) 

Next we rediscover more intimately than ever, our relationships to 
Holy family, business, money, home, the Holy everything, embraced as 
Universal dharma, in complete freedom.

A disciple wrote it down. But not much else was recorded during his 
lifetime.

No we don't. 
That is the whole point of the Vedic way...and the Buddha's 
later realization.(too late to save his errant and useless path.)

It is the ONLY recorded saying of Buddha. The rest were made up by
