@Water by the River It isn't an ideal. Grasping what you are doesn't necessarily transform your self or your experience. Transcending suffering is not the same as getting enlightened, as the former relates to relative existence. For example, Nissargadatta, being enlightened, was addicted to tobacco, and there was emotional pain behind this drive. -
@Dodo To be clear, I was being sarcastic. I don't know what I'm talking about.

UnbornTao started following Respectfully disagreeing with Leo about Crypto

Speaking of astrology, I received $20 in an esoteric cryptocurrency three years ago. I opened my wallet yesterday for the first time since then, which goes to show my level of interest in crypto, and to my surprise, it had grown to $300. It was sheer beginner's luck. So, my best investment advice is to have no idea what you're doing.

None. Every one of them is a failure to personally grasping the absolute. The spirit of Zen is probably the "purest" or clearest one. But it is pretty rare. Plenty of crap passes as Zen nowadays. To conclude: none. -

@Water by the River Enlightenment and transcending suffering are different pursuits. Trying to dissolve suffering is still a form of suffering. -
How many of your attempts and methods at "solving" life are equivalent to the following: Being blind, what you set out to do to recover your sight is to change the landscape in front of you. In this analogy, the bottom line cause of what sources things isn't addressed, but rather its superficial manifestations. You may, for example, feel inadequate or incomplete, and as a result, set out to become a bodybuilder as a way to resolve your inner insecurity. This isn't meant to disparage such efforts, but to bring up their motive behind them. Do what you want, and be clear why you're undertaking it. Otherwise the place where things occur isn't addressed; the endeavour is ultimately futile as it relates to your purpose for carrying it out. Contemplate ways in which you're superficially dealing with conditions rather than with their real cause. How does the condition exist? What is it? Where or when does it start and end? What is it made out of? Don't overlook this.
