Possibly the only major religion that until recently allowed for different people and Nature to live together more or less harmoniously yet still retained an authentic core for those who wished to explore beyond the general indications of the Buddha.

Since then, lot's of "semi-adapted" versions have become popular .. in my view a bit like McDonalds' version of Buddhism.
