Siddmartha: Mom, he's destroying my philosophy. He's luring away my followers with raucous parties and fatty treats.

Siddmartha: Mom!
Queen Gautama: What do you want me to do, Siddmartha? I love my children equally.
Siddmartha: You could send him to the tower and still love him equally.

The Dalai Lama: I sense a disturbance in this place. Something to do with…donuts?
Lisa: *gasp* I thought my Dalai Lama tracker app was malfunctioning, but you're actually here!
The Dalai Lama: Ah, you must be Siddmartha.
Lisa: No, actually, this is Siddmartha.
Siddmartha: Hey.
The Dalai Lama: *looks back and forth between them* Really? Uh, okay. Siddmartha, my Lama sense was tingling. It told me you were about to do something regrettable.
Siddmartha: Like handing out knuckle sandwiches?
The Dalai Lama: Yes, like that. You know that Buddhism does not condone violence.
Siddmartha: Well, what about stuffing your face with sugary, deep-fried, fatty donuts? That's all these people seem to do.

The Dalai Lama: No.
Homer: D'oh!

The Dalai Lama: Thank you for showing me around this lovely little town.
Siddmartha: My pleasure. I thought we could round out the tour with a donut at Lard Lad.
The Dalai Lama: Excellent idea! I'm famished and I can get a bit grouchy when I'm hungry.

Siddmartha: Eh, no.
The Dalai Lama: But that's an obscene number of donuts!
Siddmartha: Perhaps now you see why I tried to put a stop to it.

Siddmartha: I think we could both use a little Zen time, so I've booked us a class making salt mandalas.

Siddmartha: It seems the town has returned to its former ambivalence toward Buddhism.
Lisa: Yes, they've officially dropped the Buddhism from the "Buddhism with Donuts" philosophy.
