Historical Meeting.

[SpoiledPrincess]

If you could meet one person who would it be, it can be someone who's alive, someone who's dead or even someone who's legendary. I'd want to meet Buddha, Buddhism is the way of life that most appeals to me out of any religious or spiritual path, and I think his sense of moderation and sanity would have made him surprisingly modern. I'd want him to be the Buddha of legend, the one whose mother dreamed of his birth and the one who was a prince when young.

I would love to meet Leonardo DaVinci. He had a mind that was not tethered to his times and I'd love to hear his reaction to how the world has turned out. Hmmm...wonder if he had a big dick....

It's a tough choice for me, but I think I would have to choose the Dalai Lama. I've seen him talk in person and it was life-changing for me. He's one of those few people who I can say was a truly spiritual person. It was as if he doesn't live in the same world as the rest of us, but somewhere where he can laugh at just about anything thanks to the impermanence of it all.

The most inspiring moment was when someone asked him what the most difficult thing he'd ever had to do was, and his answer was very frankly asking his people to evacuate their homeland. He answered a follow-up question saying that no matter what happened, one day the Tibetans would get their homeland back, even if it's hundreds of years from now. It seemed like a really enlightened answer, since had they not left, he likely would have been taken away from Tibet, and a lot of the Tibetans would have been severely oppressed or forced to give up their beliefs, which are things that are far harder to get back than an area of land.

[T-Lex]

I would love to meet a 100% honest politician, who truly is seeking elected office out of a pure desire to be a public servant, not to line his own pockets or further his own career. (Keep dreaming, huh?)

 

[SpoiledPrincess]

I know I said mythical Tony, but keep it real

I think he only existed in Hollywood in an old film starring Jimmy Stewart called "Mr. Smith goes to Washington".

Nice thread here Spoiled Princess.....I'd love to meet Oscar Wilde and Alexander the Great.

Oh yeah, Alexander the Great would be a great (no pun intended) to meet. I own a coin that was made back then with his image on it...wonder what he'd think to see that 1700 year old coin?

God, to demand a re-write.

Cool, I have an Alexandrian coin ring myself! :smile: It would be really interesting to be able to meet him.

Wow, I'd love to see that! That must be worth a pretty (no pun intended) penny. :smile:
