Online readers, can you help bring back stolen Buddha?

The following is one of our favorite  letters to the editor of all time.

Bring Buddha back

I live on the Lower Westside. For many years a green, medium size plaster Buddha has been sitting in my front yard facing east and watching the sun rise for me as I am rarely awake that early.

Friday morning, I went outside to find that my Buddha was gone, taken Thursday night I presume. I am concerned about the person who took him. Perhaps they are not aware of the cosmic law that is, whomever shall purloin another person’s Buddha is developing for themselves some seriously bad Karma. Trust me, no one wants that. Therefore, I suggest that you divest yourself of negativity and bring back Buddha immediately. Thank you.

John Morris, Santa Cruz

    Good luck, Mr. Morris – I hope Buddha gets returned promptly. However, I would be very surprised if the Buddha-napper has a conscience, let alone reads the newpaper.

    Maybe “Buddha” was done with you and moved on to where it was needed.

    One day he woke up and asked, “where is my Buddha.” A voice replied, “The sun has risen.”
