"g22. It is said that Jesus had followers. In the Buddhist center in Helsinki some 15 years ago there was a man with somewhat Jesus style appearance and he too tended to have followers. He used to keep some short talks about Buddhist teachings, somewhat like tales of different subjects, kind of his own versions of Buddhist thoughts, on meditation evenings. I guess that it is some human type which tends to have followers : there is something valuable, of good quality that he tends to give to listeners, but some other parts somewhat obscure as if not so good for others, and it all valuable kind of theoretical, letting people live their own lives each in their own way, completely undisturbed but sharing common civiliced values and an interest in the hobby group like meetings every now and then, not so overly often snd not so rigidly, more like a group of like-minded people at some age in their lives. I guess that some adults who tend to charm neighbourhood's children and show them things to do, have some good sides like that even though not necessarily theoretical. "
