Yes, you go, Mr. Bhikku!

 

I hear that Mr. Bhikku will

be participating at the next

World Yoga Olympics, in which

he will attempt to set the record

for fastest crushing of the thorn

of sensual desire, in which bare

feet only are allowed.

 

His strongest competition is expected

to come from Lama Bunyananda, who is

renowned for calloused feet built

up over decades trekking around the

Himalayas regardless of weather conditions.

 

Lama Bunyananda was quoted as saying,

"Bring it on, Bhikku. I'm waiting

for you. Sure, you crossed the mire,

but did you levitate through the snows

of K-15 carrying a backpack? You may

not be preturbed by pleasures and pains,

but my one-footed levitational hop will

crush the thorn of desire before you've

even started to wipe the mire off your

toes!"

 

As Bikkhu and Solananda are also entered

in the 1000 meter delusional destruct

event, spectators can expect an

exciting and thrilling World Yoga Olympics...
