This morning at the Future of Religions conference in Extropia, Zoe Connolly and I decided that Second Life needs some patron saints to help us through lagging, crashing, griefing and other virtual challenges. I had a miraculous vision and this new member of the pantheon of Second Life appeared to me. Here's the conversation that got the ball rolling:Lagachakra is the Bodhisattva of Avatarian Patience. When trouble strikes, simply repeat her mantra and you will find peace:
Lahga Crahsha Bodhi Om
Zoe: Lagitha
Botgirl: Her christian aspect
Botgirl: In Hindusism she is known a lagthsme
Zoe: Lagifima
Botgirl: In Judaism Lagabubbie

Botgirl: good one!
Botgirl: There's a blog post here with some associated graphics
Botgirl: the religious pantheon of SL
