Lyric discussion by what123ever 

This song, like 'Aja' is a parody of the West's (and I suspect Californian's in specific) over-simplified fascination with Eastern philosophy. All this poor sucker knows is that his so-called Bodhisattva (who is more likely some self-apointed charlatan) has told him to sell his house, and join the frickin' hare krishnas! ... the fool.

It's a joke.

Bingo!!This is the best and most accurate approach on the meaning of the song!!!

Yes. You have seen through the myriad illusions of Maya and now dwell in the clear light of Buddhahood.

Your incisive comment shows are have attained satori.
