Hi Andrew,

"what is the answer ".....Answer to what?


"where is the answer "......Answer to where?


"is the answer available to everyone and all sentient beings in the lifetime in which they exist now"....
If everyone knows how to ask the right question.


"How many buddhas are there, who keeps count "....
Countless; who can keep count?

To-day is Wesak Day, 12 May 2006.  This is the day the Buddha was born, attained enlightenment, and passed away.  It is the most auspicious day for the Buddhists worldwide.  May you have peace and happiness.
