a snake

[Buddha]

I'm a polytheistic moron - does that mean I qualify for Buddha status?

Yes, all beings have Buddha nature. Even pythons. Even Mystic Rythm.

I made an intensive study of spiritual philosophies for many years until I sat down under the shade of that Bodi tree and finally attained enlightenment. But the 4 fold-noble path is open to all who choose to walk it. Some attain understanding through study. Some by chopping wood.

Namaste',

Buddha
