Yes, Albert Einstein was a strong admirer of Buddhism. He famously stated, "If there is any religion that would cope with modern scientific needs, it would be Buddhism," and he believed that the religion of the future should be a "cosmic religion" that transcended personal God and avoided dogma. He also admired the Buddha and other spiritual figures, according to Tricycle: The Buddhist Review.

I have Buddhist relatives who back in the day ran a retreat centre in Scotland.
I visited regularly.
It was good fun.
They are now run of the mill, capitalist materialist pseudo Buddhists.

Buddhism needs a revival.

@Shila
Buddhism needs a revival.
There you are Shila, sling the cross and beads, don your best orange dress, shave your head and revive the mystical east.
Or west, whichever's closer to Canada.
Or just stay at home and revive it there.
I think that flower power and free love needs a revival.

Buddhism's revival can be facilitated through a combination of educational efforts, promoting its relevance in modern life, and fostering a renewed sense of community and practice. Revival efforts often involve initiatives like increased access to monastic education, preserving Buddhist teachings and practices, and encouraging both monastic and lay participation. Additionally, some Buddhist groups are actively engaging in outreach to a wider audience, including through tourism and other forms of community engagement.

Yep.

Or Nazism, even.
Wear the badge, wear the outfit, promote the ideology.
Or philately.
