My Buddhist name is Bodhisattva Moon Torch. Don't miss out on this chance to be a Major Zen Dude or Diva. Get yours today! And let us know what your new name is.
My buddhist name is Great Teacher Mother Brightness. Kind of nice to think I could be a mom in my next life. I think I'll have a nice cup of Zen tea now and relax.
Very good question. Seems to me Bashō called himself Travel-Worn Satchel. I think you're onto something there: the real heavyweights have the self-deprecating names.
I think some of these names are for a life already lived, or maybe not yet lived. (Or in your case, three lives.) Hence the gender whimsy. I have no idea what logarithm they use for this, but it's pretty random.
Ok....as though I did not get enough 'Zen' from your post from last week that I stumbled in upon, I spotted this and had to play.....and how apropos it was! Mine is 'Tripitaka Master Dharma Holder Pure'! LOL. I guess I'll stick THAT in my pipe and smoke it!
Mines "Prince Ever Demon". Meet you in the World of Warcraft!

ReplyDeletemine is "The Boy Golden Name". Wa??? I always thought I was a Golden Girl.
ReplyDeleteWa??? is right. First I put in only my first name and it said mine is "The Girl Ever Constellation" Figure that one out.
ReplyDeleteThen I put in both first and last names and got: "Great Teacher Golden Brightness". Getting better eh?
Next my first, middle and last name and: "King Wind Truth" Starting to like this.
