Buddhist Buddhist service for Allen Ginsberg in NYC
Several hundred shoeless mourners gathered at a Buddhist meditation center in New York City to honor Allen Ginsberg.

Ginsberg 70 died Saturday from heart attack after a battle with liver cancer. He was born to Jewish parents but practiced Buddhism daily with a routine of contemplation and tea.
