I'm da illest buddhist you ever seen...

[Ogyen]

The funniest Buddhist rap video I've ever seen! I'm the sickest Buddhist and I'm kickin' Buddha butt baby...

[Blue Garuda]

It's a classic, for sure!

Only Segal can top it! LOL

[Ogyen]

I look so serene when I bust a lotus, but I don't have an ego so I wouldn't even notice...
or
I don't know how or why I'm so zen, I make the power of now look like the power of then... buddha taught me to be humble and kind but I'm so F***g present I'm ahead of my time..I opened my third eye on my first try... why I don't know I guess I'm just the bomb, when it comes to modesty I got it going on...

This song always has me rolling playing on the many attitudes about being so spiritual and unmaterial... if you can't laugh at yourself, what can you laugh at...

Haha Asunthatneversets posted that in another thread today too.

Not as funny as some of FOTC's other stuff, but I chuckled a bit.

Best part:

"I make The Power of Now look like The Power of Then".

It's a lil' mouth though. Not that I'm offended, but it's funny how just today I was thinking how I like how the Hip-Hop group The Lost Children of Babylon didn't use curse words at all on their first couple albums, but didn't like so much how they started to swear on their other albums; yet they recently took it back to the old school and stopped cursing for their newer Zeitgeist/Venus Project album.


The illest Shaolin monk:

"The instructor told us to do a 45 minute meditation. I nailed it in ten."

[dharmagoat]

"The instructor told us to do a 45 minute meditation. I nailed it in ten."

That's my favourite too.

[David N. Snyder]

I've lost interest in most music, but this one is great.

You don't think I'm peaceful? Step up and say it to my face, bitch.

The full lyrics:

‘Sickest Buddhist’ rap by Arj Barker

lady friend: hey baby where you at?

Arj: I’m still at the ass-shram.

lady friend: hows it going?

Arj: It’s going killer. the instructor just told us to do a 45 min meditation

lady friend: really?

Arj: I nailed it in 10!
lady friend: no way!

Arj: Owned! (ed. note: Om-ed?)

I’m the illest Buddhist you’ve seen
all the ladies wanna meditate with me
I look so serene when I bust a lotus
but i don’t have an ego so I wouldn’t even notice

I think of you before I think of myself
that’s probably why people think I’m so chill
But still I’m hell of intense
my clothes have little bells and they smell like incense

It’s so dope when I focus on my breath
cause I floss all the time and I chew big red
I don’t smoke weed but I burn sage by the pound
wave it all around til the air turns brown

I’m all krunked up on kombucha and juice
never heard of kama sutra? let me introduce
Step in to my hybrid we head over to my bed
64 positions I think you’re gonna like it

[CHORUS]

one hand clapping frak that Yo more like the sound of a one-legged standing Ohh!
I’m blowin up the dharma like what! cause I’m the sickest Buddhist and I’m kickin Buddha butt
x2

I just went to the class for a laugh
maybe meet some chicks
but as it comes to pass
I kick ass at this pacifist shit.

Non-attachment I just mastered it
You don’t believe me? you don’t think I’m peaceful?
Step up to my face and say that bitch
I’ll non-attach your teeth from your lips

I practice compassion towards friends and enemies
but all these frak trying to hate on my serenity

[GIRLS]

hes’ so spiritual
so unmaterial
almost ethereal
eats organic cereal
his aura is so bright
his chakras are so tight
his energy is light
his hair is so right

he’s so sweet and Buddhist Unh

Is it my Indian roots
My Guatemalan pair of shoes
My extensive collection of expensive Tibetan flutes
I don’t know how or why I’m so zen
I make the power of now look like the power of then

To hell with Dr Phil, Oprah and Martha
I chill with Eckhart Tolle, Deepak Chopra and Siddhartha
Buddha taught me to be humble and kind
But I’m so frak present I’m like ahead of my time

Enlightenment eludes most til they die
But i opened my third eye on my first try
Why? I don’t know I guess I’m just the bomb
When it comes to modesty I got it goin on

[CHORUS]
