Buddha
Your private leader is Buddha. You don't feel the need to tell everyone. But when you're alone you give your time to Buddha and let him lead your life.
Imagine being in the privacy of your own home, your own room, and saying to yourself, "Yes Buddha, you're my leader." Or, if that irks you, don't. Your religion is your own private right, yo.

Your private Buddha is a little different than other people's idea of him. Your Buddha is wearing boots (ぶつ). They're big and rubber, and they look fabulous on him.
Picture Buddha wearing a giant pair of rubber boots. Yes, now this is fashion.
