As I pulled in the parking lot, I did a quick look around and found someone walking towards the entrance. I played follow the leader and watched as he took of his shoes, entered the building and walked into a large carpeted hall with a stage in the front. A large golden Buddha sat in the center of the stage, and I was surprised, because he seemed rather trim, with more of a smirk, or knowing smile, instead of the fat laughing Buddha you see at Chinese restaurants. About 15 people were scattered around the hall amongst chairs and small seats without legs almost like the seats people bring to sporting events for the bleachers. Obviously, these were some kind of meditation chair.
