Theravada Buddhism
On holiday in Sri Lanka, my wife and I went to visit a small Buddhist temple which was located up some steps from the beach on a secluded rocky outcrop.

Once up there, we found it had a house for the monks, a bigger house containing statues of Buddha, a garden, a spiral thingy and a temple, which was really a dark cave which had been internally plastered and had stone slabs for seats on the floor and it had a cartwheel in it.

Whilst we were in the cave observing some monks meditate and having a moment of quiet reflection ourselves, a scruffy little dog came running into the temple. Not wanting it to disturb the monks I quickly shooed it out of the temple door and chased it back down the steps and onto the beach.

Upon my return to the temple, the monks were less than pleased with me and requested I return their dog and kindly leave.

I would love to be a Buddhist
Aside from the no drinking rule kind of rules it out
