Tiger says his Buddhist faith will help him
Tiger Woods made it pretty clear today that his Buddhism faith will play a key role in his future.
Woods made a much-anticipated public appearance today, his first since the scandal regarding his his multiple adulterous affairs erupted in November 2009. The champion golfer acknowledged that he had a lot of work today regarding his wife and family, among other things. Then he said he expected his faith to come to his aid.
“Part of this for me is Buddhism. It teaches that craving for things outside ourselves causes an unhappy and pointless search for security. It teaches me to stop following every impulse and practice restraint. Obviously, I lost track of what I was taught,” Woods read from his prepared statement.
Religion writers and others across the country are speaking out about what Woods had to say. I’ve included the links to some of the interesting faith-related commentary.
