Such Are Our Buddhists!
Buddhadasa Bhikkhu
“I made merit all over the place, but never win the lottery.” This looks even cruder than wandering in sensuality; so what can it be? Look more like wandering as a hungry ghost and it happens almost every day.*
*Kāmāvacara is to wander in the sensual ego states of Samsara. Petāvacara is to wander in states of perpetual, unsatisfiable hunger.
