Posted February 3, 2018 Rep+++ for Mighty Mouse, if I can figure out how. If you are a Zen Devil, does that mean that the Roshi is Lucifer, and the stick he hits you with is a Trident. Sorry, can't help it, it's 5:30am!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 3, 2018 Joseph, You are obviously a thoughtful, hardworking, and sensive guy, and you seem sincere. I love Nasargadatta's paper, and I gain lots of devotion from it too at times, when other practices become too tech and my head spins. Yet, I am leary/wary of instructions where one is told to employ "blind" faith and devotion to a "guru". The whole guru concept is a very very dangerous one. In Catholicism, the Pope is concedered God on earth, and nearly unquestionable. This isn't "the path" to IMHO. Good luck, and sincere Metta! Ramana Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks to me like you are kicking total ass, exploring your feelings, heart, mind, guy, and the way that complex interacts with the sense of "self" and "world". In other words, you are bravely walking the path (your path), like we all will, regardless of what we "think". You seem to be a smart and sensitive guy. I too, get uptight and stressed and can have trouble remembering that there is nothing but reason to relax. I can choose to fall apart, and feed off of that taste as well. 7 minutes ago, Mighty Mouse said: Get into an argument with the above pictured guy about genetics, and he will be "right" every fucking time.

Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) This thread has been completely hijacked. The moderators should shut it down. Ya'll are wasting your time, and calling me addicted to boot. Look at you! Most people on here are addicted to the Internet. Yet, I'm the one who gets accused of it initially. Project much? At least I'm trying to put out real shit on here not just bad attempts at humor. All these crap single line posts on here are the problem, not my content. And the people making those, what the hell are you doing on here? Go to a bar and talk to some chicks if you wanna be funny. This is a personal development forum not some kind of text messaging thing where we trade single line posts with an attempt to be snarky. That's a waste of time, if you ask me. Get to work! Are you enlightened yet? No. Any why not? Because you're wasting your time trying to be funny all the time. You're not even addressing your deeper problems. You're avoiding them.

You're like a child trying to gain attention all the time with your humor. Look at me, look at me, look at me! All the time. That is your M.O. I don't know how the hell you meditate or be still with that monkey-mind you got. So, before you accuse me take a good look at yourself first. How do you meditate by the way? I can't see it.

Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) @Joseph Maynor The quote just gave away the 'golden nugget' for enlightenment. Rest in ''I AM'' and be self realized. Nothing else is needed, But LO!! what this turned into. The fact that this thread turned into a joke and me still sitting in front of a computer makes me wonder if Decarte's evil demon of deception really is real All hail self deception!! Sometimes I feel like forgetting everything and start worshiping this all powerful force of nature Edited February 3, 2018 by Preetom ''Not this... Not this... PLEASE...Not this...''
