  • 9 - 008-Buddha Z Explains: Humans Being Salmon? May Day Podcast 2021, "Again" poem, 4 Noble Truths Explained, "A Long Way Home"

    This is the "May Day Podcast 2021"in which Buddha Z explains that 70% of Americans are slaves, 20% are slave owners, and 10% just laugh at us.  

    This was intended to be a simultaneous video recording but Richard neglected to press the record button on his iPhone.  So he recorded the VIDEO VERSION separately after this and posted it at the YouTube CHANNEL: Buddha Z
    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxF4C6CjvqTpSuZVviiiRlw

    Intro song is"4 Noble Truths" by Buddha Z, recorded in his Tacoma in 2015.  These are the rough tracks.  The album is planned for release on Buddha's birthday, April 8, 2022.  

    The outro song is "A Long Way Home"is from the first American Zen album,LEVEL 1 = Peace Of Mind about Coyote wishing he was back in California instead of battling the Mormons.

    The music by Buddha Z will be a different style of music he calls "Buddhist Rap."  As a "Buddhist Rapper," Buddha Z can be more cynical and perhaps less respectful of those he disagrees with.  Thus the entirely different styles and different careers can be different artistic goals for Richard Del Connor who is also, "The Hippy Coyote," of American Zen.  

    Buddha Z has his first book published at Amazon.com Supersoul 13 -- Discovering the Soul of God.  This is a great book to introduce Americans to Hindu philosophy and the book, Bhagavad Gita, about Krishna.  Shaolin Communications received permission to publish excerpts of the book, Bhagavad Gita, and comment on them as they inspired him and improved his life.  The SUPERSOUL THEORY is that every person has TWO SOULS.  One soul belongs to God and the other to the person.

  • 8 - 007-Buddha Z Explains: What is Love? Love is a Verb! "Don't Marry A Girl With A Dog" and "Thank You" by American Zen

    Buddha Z reads his poem,“Don’t Marry A Girl With A Dog,” to explain how to succeed in marriage.

    After 50 years of love, romance, love, lust and marriages… Buddha Z also explains he has DATA and STATISTICS about other people’s marriages.

    He challenges the listener to find among their relatives and parents of their friends any marriage that has lasted more than 20 years, and if so WHY?

    He talks about having had lots of love in his life… but they’re all gone. All the love is gone…

    What is love? Love is benefitting the partner. “If your life isn’t better with them, you’re better off without them,” he summarizes. He explains that “Love is a verb…”

    Buddha Z isn’t against love, he just explains that even insects have sex, so love is an animal thing… or an insect thing…

    Buddha Z apologizes for not publishing the first book of his 8-book series on Buddha’s Birthday April 8, 2021.

    This podcast is performed on April 22, 2021 and Buddha Z says he didn’t celebrate on 4/20 because he’s poor and doesn’t know a pothead he’d like to party with currently.

    Buddha Z is writing the 8-book series, 4 Noble Truths Explained -- by Buddha Z to be available at:
    https://www.ZenBuddhistPodcast.com

    The podcast concludes with the song, “Thank You,” from the American Zen debut album, LEVEL 1 = Peace Of Mind. Buddha Z explains that he wrote this song while he still believed the love between him and his wife would last forever. Then he explains that she dumped him a year or two later…

    Buddha Z has his first book published at Amazon.com Supersoul 13 -- Discovering the Soul of God.  This is a great book to introduce Americans to Hindu philosophy and the book, Bhagavad Gita, about Krishna.  Shaolin Communications received permission to publish excerpts of the book, Bhagavad Gita, and comment on them as they inspired him and improved his life.  The SUPERSOUL THEORY is that every person has TWO SOULS.  One soul belongs to God and the other to the person.

  • 7 - 006-Buddha Z Explains: 4 Noble Truths: Perspective is an Attitude

    Buddha Z reads his poem, "Love Is," to piss off his fellow poets who always write "Love..." poems.  

    I got frustrated hearing these "Love is love is love is love..." poems at the many poetry readings I also read at.  Some people are so locked into their narrow-minded perspectives... that I presume it's my duty to snap them out of their ignorance.  

    That's what I like about my "Buddha Z" image.  I'm actually Buddha Zhen (Zhen Shen-Lang "Spirit Wolf of Truth") who teaches Shaolin Kung Fu, Yang Tai Chi Chuan and Zen Buddhism to hundreds of students.  As Buddha Zhen I am patient and tolerant as I guide people to learn Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi Chuan.

    As "Buddha Z" I don't have to wear my Kung Fu and Taoist robes.  I'm just a sassy Buddha.  Sometimes it's more enjoyable to tell people what I think they need to hear without being so polite.

    After a couple years of poetry readings as, "Richard Del Connor -- Philosopher Poet," I was beginning my new poetry career as Buddha Z.  Then I moved to Mt. Olympus and the Covid lockdown... So Buddha Z barely got started as a public poet.

    My goal as Buddha Z is to promote my 8-book series I've just started, 4 Noble Truths Explained -- by Buddha Z.
    https://www.ZenBuddhistPodcast.com  

    I've got one book already published at Amazon.com Supersoul 13 -- Discovering the Soul of God.  This is a great book to introduce Americans to Hindu philosophy and the book, Bhagavad Gita, about Krishna.  I received permission to publish excerpts of the book, Bhagavad Gita, and comment on them as they inspired me and improved my life.  The SUPERSOUL THEORY is that every person has TWO SOULS.  One soul belongs to God and the other to the person.

  • 6 - 005-Buddha Z Explains: The "Golden Rule" is for Murderers

    I've had a very adventurous life.  Ernest Hemingway was one of my heroes as an author and adventurer... but his lifestyle and final summaries of life are much different than mine.  I've never been an alcoholic so my attitude and appreciation of life have always exceeded everyone else I've known by being healthy and appreciative of live, this planet, Nature, plants, animals, and everywhere I've been that has been beautiful to me.  I've loved deserts, Oceanside's, mountains, the ocean, and even living in my car.

    My appreciation of the world outside me has been founded and based on my appreciation of the world inside me.  Despite the horrific environments I've endured, I've been able to keep an inner beauty that is my constant source of pride, and ego.  Yes, EGO.  People who fear their egos fear the truth of their actions.  Have a strong ego based upon knowing you are a good person.  

    The "Christian Golden Rule" is "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

    The "Confucian Golden Rule" (which came first) is "DO NOT do unto others what you DO NOT want done to you."  This does not validate murder like the Christian rule does.

  • 5 - 004-Buddha Z Explains: 4 Noble Truths

    Buddha Zis going to start recording these podcasts again from his home 2,400 feet above sea level.  He calls him new home, Mt. Olympus.

    The poem, "Buddhism is Not a Religion" was recorded in his car over a year ago when Buddha Z was a homeless monk teaching Shaolin Kung Fu at North Hollywood Park and performing his poetry and a song on flute in local clubs, coffee houses, libraries...

    He's written a couple books in the last year...
