Monks in Kyoto station

Monks in Kyoto station
My friend, Keisuke Togawa, said this is an advertisement for a Buddhist school. Wikipedia entry for Bukkyo University:
...(佛教大学 Bukkyō daigaku?) is a private university in Kita-ku, Kyoto in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. The predecessor of the school was founded in 1912, and it was chartered as a junior college in 1949. Bukkyo means Buddhism in Japanese Language. This university's philosophy is based on Pure Land Buddhism.

Hehe - they're monks (I guess), so they'd be three little misters! Thanks, Diana.

Buddhism has always seemed delightful to me, in that it is not afraid to laugh...or is that Zen?

I don't know. The existentialist flavor of it appeals to me. Maybe that's what leads to a sense of humor, not worrying about controlling everything.
