Hi! Anyone know where I can find Buddhist related products in Scranton area?
I'm looking for a small statue of a laughing/smiling Buddha as a stocking stuffer. Possibly a keychain or something small. I cannot even imagine where I would look. I'd order on-line, but last year some of my purchases came after Christmas and I'm a little paranoid the same will happen this year. You know, I'm sure with all the buddists that frequent this place,  I'll be steered down the right path.
Thanks very much!

I hate to make light of a very prominent faith, but have you tried either Spencer's Gifts or Hot Topic at the malls?

Joe, all I could find is this:
Books for the Nineties phone: 800-331-3761
P.O. Box 588
Scranton, PA 18512-0588
(catalog of books on psychology, meditation, buddhism, spirituality, etc.)
They MAY have buddhas in addition to books...
I also checked Ebay for you & they have a TON of small buddhas with "Buy-It-Now" & Priority shipping....ya might wanna check...

He was moderator, gave it up for a while, and now he's back again. I think Yac, our interim moderator, just got tired of hearing us rant and rave about such stupid things all the time! LOL!

What about the Himalayan Institute place in Honesdale on Main St? I've never been in there but I think they sell books and stuff...might be able to find a Buddha there.
