There\u2019s a seemingly easy correlation of Japanese-American generations and the Shin Buddhist experience in the US, but after the third generation \u2014 as the community becomes more diverse and what it means to be Asian\/Japanese\/American\/Buddhist\/a-member-of-specific-generation changes \u2014 things get fuzzy. We talk around a lot of issues about how inter-generational dynamics play out in the BCA, and you\u2019re gonna wanna stick around for the next episode.<\/p>\n<p>(Also, note to self: buy Harry a Transformer for his birthday.)<\/p>\n<p>Image Credit:<br \/>\nGodzilla<br \/>\n(c) 2007 by Kirk Teetzel<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kirkt\/437482433\/\">https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kirkt\/437482433\/<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_8941\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-1132-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3\">http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('http:\/\/www.dharmarealm.com\/?powerpress_pinw=1132-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"episode_92.mp3\">Download<\/a> (Duration: 30:43 &#8212; 35.5MB) | <a href=\"#\" class=\"powerpress_link_e\" title=\"Embed\" onclick=\"return powerpress_show_embed('1132-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Embed<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_embed_box\" id=\"powerpress_embed_1132-podcast\" style=\"display: none;\"><input id=\"powerpress_embed_1132-podcast_t\" type=\"text\" value=\"&lt;div class=&quot;powerpress_player&quot; id=&quot;powerpress_player_8942&quot;&gt;&lt;audio class=&quot;wp-audio-shortcode&quot; id=&quot;audio-1132-2&quot; preload=&quot;none&quot; style=&quot;width: 100%;&quot; controls=&quot;controls&quot;&gt;&lt;source type=&quot;audio\/mpeg&quot; src=&quot;http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3?_=2&quot; \/&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3&quot;&gt;http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/dharmarealm\/www.dharmarealm.com\/podcast\/episode_92.mp3&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/audio&gt;&lt;\/div&gt;\" onclick=\"javascript: this.select();\" onfocus=\"javascript: this.select();\" style=\"width: 70%;\" readOnly><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/podcast\/the-dharmarealm\/id276896060?mt=2&amp;ls=1#episodeGuid=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dharmarealm.com%2F%3Fp%3D1132\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_itunes\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on Apple Podcasts\" rel=\"nofollow\">Apple Podcasts<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dharmarealm.com\/?feed=podcast\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p><!--powerpress_player-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Right off the bat, pretty sure I goofed the origin story of the word \u201cmeh\u201d and its reference in The Simpsons.
