Quoting: m&m's Thank God i put these PoS worthless toys (like the way of zen) behind me years ago. i would suggest others do the same. these type of men and women peddle lies, like "snake oil salesmen" of the past. there is NO enlightenment gained by following the 8 fold path or doing daily meditation.

FUCK!! you dont have to meditate to get to this state dude. you do it ever day and dont realize it. take the time to acknowledge it every once in a while. this world is beautiful and you cant see it because your trapped behind the illusion of happiness. everything is as it needs to be. but only because we make it that way. it has nothing to do with the cursing. stick around enough and you'll see a pattern of her spewing hate everywhere she goes. it's like a trail of toxicity in every thread she follows. truly a bummer. fucketty fucks are sure welcome, though!

Not so, buddhism is the "evolution" of hinduism, the "gods"/spirits of hinduism is all in buddhism. Same draconic bs as hinduism, just a little more clever. If you study Eastern History you will notice that they're not a peaceful people, that's the thing with them they give you the illusion of being peaceloving people. Here's a good example of the bs they do: [link to www.bosnewslife.com] so this hippie bs about being such nice fellas is just hippie bs. You don't create martial arts systems because you're peaceful guy, you create that shit because you're warrior, remember Sidharta was a warrior, it's a warrior philosophy not this hippie peace bs that the hippe peace bs crowd in California decided that buddhism is. But the worst part of buddhism is like all the other religions they think you work yourself into heaven/nirvana/paradise or whatever you call it. It's a works salvation based system, you have puny "god" where you must work yourself to heaven, that "god" is not very powerful that must have you do deeds to get there, i mean why would a "god" want you to do deeds to let you stay in his abode? Good article about that: [link to accordingtothescriptures.org] As I said it's all hippie bs. I'm surprised people on GLP don't see through the buddhist bs yet, is it because you've never been to asia? Just look at those horrible countries, whenever it's some good stuff coming out of there it's always something they stole from us. Asia = copycat thieves. Now here's some real GLP stuff: Buddhism the religion of peacock demons. The only folks on this thread espousing a warrior mentality are you and Peanut. Hmmmmm |

Also met the Dalai Lama. (the head of our religious studies dept knows him personally-- look him up.. dr. katz) anyways, The point is that you are being extremely argumentative and hateful for such a zen thread. That is all. you need to chill out and not be so negative. you tend to ruin the vibe in every thread you hit. I'm just saying this bc a few weeks ago you didn't seem so hateful. maybe you got comfortable and started being yourself, who knows. the point is that it is possible to engage in a discussion without so much hate.

Quoting: m&m's did you like all the beheadings for lack of discipline? anyway, these are FALSE paths. i am stating my opinion. if someone disagrees with me i don't jump to them being too serious or negative or toxic. this is a forum for discussion, correct? or is it a place where everyone smiles and agrees, yet laughs or curses behind one's back? i prefer directness, honesty, and integrity anyday over diplomacy, which is just disguised treachery. fuck that. since it's so important to you, do you want my full list of books i read during my asian studies track? i read sun-tzu, lao-tzu, stuff by actual eastern writers, not just alan watts. it's called comparative religions and having a broad knowledge base. as far as false paths go, how's the one you're on? bc so far everything i have heard from you involves tragedy and hate. glad we're not on the same road! this is totally a forum for discussion, but you have to be honest with yourself. are you making it a more positive or a more negative place? because from what i've seen, you seem to love to get into arguments with everyone. and not just discussion arguments, i'm talking nasty irrational brawls. maybe not in this thread, but certainly in others. take a look! oh wait, you deleted all your stuff... i wonder why? and no, this is not a place of hypocrisy, otherwise i wouldn't have so openly disagreed with you. just tired of seeing you pee all over people's ideas with your irrational and uncalled for hate. there are ways of disagreeing and having an intellectual discussion without getting so offensive and ghetto, like you so love to do. Yep. My experience with Peanut too...... |

He is like a professor trying to describe all science with one or two physics textbooks only. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37534399 Like all that generation he puts too much emphasis on Zen and "emptiness" etc. This leads to unbalanced and partial understanding. Sorry to piss on your parade, he is of some value as I said. Particular for Western beginning level Audieces, and you can see he has obtained some level of inner wisdom. I agree with ya, and he would too, probably. But let me tell ya, the sound of the rain needs no translation. A good Zen master can teach you by using Alice In Wonderland. No need for any fancy Zen or Buddhist texts. Sooo true. This is the deepest and most important truth of all. All knowledge and truth exists everywhere at every moment in all forms as everything is intertwined in an infinitely complex fractal that is by nature constantly in a state of reflecting its whole in each piece and those pieces in each other, creating the everlasting synchronic state of now. |
