Santa Sutra

Thus have I heard:



Once, long ago, the Supreme Buddha was travelling alone to all corners of the world, until
his feet had touched every part of the surface of the Earth. He walked in the deserts, the
valleys, the mountains and over the molten rocks. On every atom lay his footprint, and on
every tiny grain of being lay his gaze. He started in the very south, and ended in the very
north.

When his feet touched the most northern point and the last of the Earths particles, The One
That Has Come and the Earth herself formed a new Buddha nature between them. The
newborn had the eternal heart of a child, and the long white beard of the wise. His form is
as an old man, in red clothes bordered with the nurturing fur of the female Snow Lion.

In his left hand he holds the Sack of the Perfection of Generosity, which he uses to bring
charity all who invoke his name; the charity of coal to teach non-attachment, and the charity
of wrapped presents to those who seek the perfection of the holiday spirit.

His right hand remains open in the mudra to Dispel Fear, indicating that no-one should have
to be afraid of the cold and fruitless winter months, of hunger and need. All hibernating
creatures, all creatures who fly to the south, and all who brave the winter chill all have the
right to live without fear.

And his name is SANTA CLAUS. Or, Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle and many
more. His mount is the reindeer Rudolf who pulls his chariot across the skies and teaches
understanding of the world by breaking the laws of physics.

He is followed by, and led by, the emanations of the Noble Eightfold Path. Dasher and
Dancer of Right View and Right Intention. Prancer and Vixen of Right Speech and Right
Action. Comet and Cupid of Right Livelihood and Right Effort. Donner and Blitzen of Right
Mindfulness and Right Concentration. Together these thought forms are what drives him
forward.

The Buddha, Perfect in Illumination and Conduct, saw this and was pleased. He put up a
marker at the site at the end of the world, a giant pole in the north to show all that at the
end of all paths is goodness and enlightenment.

Thus the great mantra of Santa is:

Ho Ho Ho nama svargapurtanapit rathe gaganam atitarati

Ho ho ho, Homage to the Ancient Father of Heaven, in his chariot he goes across the sky

And he will give charity freely to all, and the gift of charity he will bestow on any who spend
time with his mantra. He has no wrathful form, and all those who recite this sutra will gain
merit as boundless as snowflakes.

All who recite this sutra, in its full or its sort form of Ho Ho Ho, will have safe eggnog,
fruity puddings, and a pine tree to leave presents under.

And in the end will attain the perfection of wisdom and highest enlightenment.
