The Fifth Dragon King
The fifth Dragon King of Bhutan, Jigme Khesar Namgyal Wangchuck, crowned this week, has the right outlook:
I will never rule you as a King. I will protect you as a parent, care for you as a brother and serve you as a son. I have no personal goals other than to fulfill your hopes and aspirations. I shall always serve you, day and night, in the spirit of kindness, justice and equality.
He is undoubtedly enlightened because he got most of his education right here in Porcupine Country, at Phillips Academy, Cushing Academy, and Wheaton College, all in Massachusetts. (Via GVO, with thanks. Good morning, Bhutan.)
—Peter P., First Porcupine King of the Prescott Peninsula
