# "Zen and the Art of Going to the Lavatory"
Relax mind.
Relax body.
Relax bowels.
Relax.
Do not fall over.
You are a cloud.
You are raining.
Do not rain
Whist the train
Is standing at a station.
Move with the wind.
Apologize where necessary.

You edited his top knot out?

Or is it a Burmese statue?

# I thikn he did....
Because he was Indian and the style at the time was to tie the hair up in a top knot... as Sikh's still do.

Though Buddha statues from certain countries (Burma tends to be one) tend to miss off the top knot.
