Basic Buddhism:

Do not pass go Basic Buddhism.
If you do you do not know Buddhism and you are no good Buddhism.
As much hate mail as i will get i have to say once again basic Buddhism is built on respect, a lineage of respect.
If all of the Buddhsts stand in line they will all stand straigt in one line out of respect to the one ahead of him/her with the Buddha at the head of the line.

All will bow in unison as a sign of respect to the one ahead of him/her.
A Buddhist who has not learned respect and who will not learn respect ain't no Buddhist.
Out of respect we keep the Temple clean.
Out of resepct we donate to help the Temple financially.
Out of respect we do not step on the others' toes.
Out of respect for human beings we help other human beings.
Out of respect for the abbot we help the abbot with whatever is needed voluntarily.
Out of respect we study and practice diligently.
Out of respect for the environment we keep the environment clean.
Out of respect for the Buddha within we respect others as we will respect Buddha.

If you have not learned respect and are not interested in learning respect you are no fit for Buddhism, not here not there not anywhere.
