Things I will tell my teacher:

When I get stressed out at work (which happens a LOT), sometimes I will put on my headphones and listen to the Avalokiteshvara puja she gave me the CD of, and chant the hundred OM MANE PAME HUMs, and I will almost always feel much calmer and relaxed.

Things I will not tell my teacher:

Sometimes, listening to the Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack does the same thing for me.

:) I was an atheist for years and got bored, wanted to see what this faith thing was all about. So far, not bad. But it does amuse me that my brain is whacked enough that certain things bring me inner peace... like candlelight, music, chanting, and apparently also crossdressers singing.

Hey, a lot of my best friends in high school had RHPS experiences that I think would be cheapened if they were not described as religious. I'm all about an expansive definition of religion!
