Litzie Burgweger, a former Episcopalian in her mid-50s, decided that Buddhism was the best path for her after seeing the Dalai Lama preside at a Kalachakra initiation, one of Buddhism's most important ceremonies, in 1981 at the Deer Park Buddhist Center south of Madison.
"People from all over the world came, and they were just peaceful and kind without being ditzy," she said. "You could feel the centuries-old traditions."
Did she experience too much ditziness and not enough centuries-old traditions in the Episcopal Church?
