or rather, yesterday's quote of the day:
"Maya's not evil! She's the mother of Buddha; how could that be evil?"
which might not be so funny, except that it was said rather loudly in the middle of an Indian restaurant to the most annoying person I've ever met. he asked if I knew Ganesha... to which I replied, "um, you'd think with a name like Maya that I would." and then he called me evil. I'm actually glad I was too busy grabbing flatbread from the buffet to hit him. his reply was: "oh, that's buddhist." and so I said, "oh, you mean the veil of illusion? illusion's not evil. it's what allows us to have a human existence. it's your attachment to it that's evil." after that, all the hindi customers deferred to me when I went to get food. it was definitely the weirdest experience ever.
