Hey, I'm a moodmaking Buddhist 200%-er. If you're gonna impress me, you need the mantra that takes the flood waters and not *only* makes the water disappear, but picks it up and moves it to drought areas where it's needed. None of these twiffy "Make the problem go away for us but fuck the rest of the world" mantras for me! :-)
