In far-off Mandalay

They offer vivid, lurid plots that translate with telling ease into wildly popular entertainment. — Jonathan Gottschall

according to Zen, is not good-natured nor bad-natured in the relative sense, as accepted generally by common sense, of these terms, but Buddha-natured in the sense of non-duality.
