In May 1990, during one of my visits to Elder Paisios, we were about twenty pilgrims in his outdoor guesthouse.
Among us was a Japanese man, a chemical engineer of a large pharmaceutical company, who did not know Greek.
On this occasion, the Elder spoke about the Buddha and, addressing the Japanese man, told him that the Buddha was just a wise and intelligent man of his time. And how the world, admiring his wisdom, made him almost a god.
