Tiger Woods's Belief
Buddhism is popular in Orient, nobody will imagine that Tiger Woods who is famous for playing golf with golf clubs might be the most famous Buddhist in the world.
He confirmed that he was now going to lean on Buddhism during his long process of healing from sexual addiction and marital infidelity last Friday on his public appearance(from Tiger Friday Appearance). What kind of Buddhist is Tiger?
Tiger was raised by his mother, Tida, in the "Way of the Elders" or Theravada Buddhism. It's the dominant form of Buddhism in southern Asia, where she grew up in Thailand. They trace their teachings back to the elders of the first Buddhist community over 2,500 years ago.
Can you fault Tiger for having a God complex? Earl Woods did say in a famous Sports Illustrated interview with Gary Smith that his son would be bigger than Buddha. Is it right? i just know some golf clubs, such as PING G15 Fairway Wood, i didn't know some knowledge about Buddhism.
Before you can have the influence of a Buddha, you have to become more like a Buddha. Buddha is not a god. He was a human being. Buddha literally means one who is awake. We're all in some form of sleep and Tiger was in a dream state over the last several years. We have a saying in Buddhism, "Words don't cook rice." We've heard the words from Tiger about the path that he wants to take, now we have to see the action.
