You can't even see through your own bs ?

Okey okey, sorry. If that's true for u i won't interfere

I accept all parts of myself, both dark and light. Can light see its shadow? or vice versa? Who's is it to own?


As above so below, as within so without.

It is a matter of clarifying how we come to determine the nature of phenomena. Especially when it is a matter of extrapolating from subjective experience.

What a person considers to themselves to be obvious has nothing to do with the veracify of the thing.

There must be standards to measure whether a paranormal phenomena has substance or not.

You may prefer to not scrutinize the thing and it can retain legitimate significance and meaning in your mind. But that does not translate to it having any bearing on others.

Others do not have your direct, inner perception of whatever your experience is and hence demonstration and evidence is necessary to substantiate the thing with significance for others.

What matters to others is what demonstration the thing can manifest into our shared reality.

   Oh, so you believe in objectivity? But you don't believe in ghosts and supernatural/paranormal phenomena?

   Chakras are actually a pretty powerful network of energy signatures throughout the body, strongly tied to the hormonal glands and nervous system. If properly trained, it can be powerful, but the training is hard and rare, and also some people are really gifted at accessing more chakra.

This nothingburger still going...?

   Like a user said, pedophile derangement syndrome is very strong and still going, and as long as people are getting the badly interpreted video clips of Dalai Lama's suck my tongue joke, this thread will keep going.

@DrugsBunny  Don't pick a fight with me over nothing, and for no other reason then to hate post here. Take your vitriol elsewhere.

Someone claiming 'I have paranormal powers' means nothing except to position themselves atop a new imaginary hierarchy of superheroes, unless said abilities can be demonstrated to others.

   If you and your friend were at a cafe, and you were complaining about a bad weekends, accidents and more fighting and arguing than usual, having a few nightmares which you haven't had since years ago, and this has been going on for 3 months now, your friend says 'Hey, my family member apparently is good with being psychic, and can talk to spirits and is into some magic and shit. Would you want me to ask her to check on what's going on with you?"

   Would you refuse the offer, because you're a scientist and rationalist, and not that desperate and don't believe in the paranormal, or would you accept the offer because you are desperate despite not believing in ghosts?

Honestly, the fact that the Dali Lama is supposed to be celibate raises red flags for me.

Does your body, thoughts, feelings and emotions run YOU? Work on removing the limits of your mind. Practice being in control of your sense perceptions. Question yourself and your own thoughts about everything ... Even other cultures, practices, traditions. Don't let your own knowledge get in the way of true wisdom. LOVE YOU

@SunnyCyn First of all, before you criticize me, please correctly link the original quote to the original user, in this case it's @Thought Art and not me that stated below:

    I think this post should be directed to @Thought Art instead of me, but I'll add my 2 cents to this unintended post to me. I'm a survivor of a paranormal haunting that nearly killed me, and have experienced paranormal events in the past, and have enough meditation experiences that my intuitions lead me most of the time, and I have no issue with being a bit lead by thoughts, feelings, emotions, senses, second hand knowledge, first person experiences because they happen to me. I personally don't mind nor find issue with that.

Well ok lmao, there's got to be a genetic component to that or a fake news component.

How is this post just me acting out my ego in the usual ways? Is this post just me venting and justifying my selfishness? Are the things you are posting in alignment with principles of higher consciousness and higher stages of ego development? Are you acting in a mature or immature way? Are you being selfish or selfless in your communication? Are you acting like a monkey or like a God-like being?

@Blackhawk don't mean to be rude, but it sounds like you're making excuses to justify your porn use.

How did you arrive at the belief that it's not possible for you to stop masturbating to porn?

And you thinking that it's just a belief: that isn't a belief?

It's funny when people in this forum think that they are immune to beliefs and tell to other people: "that's just a belief which you have", but they don't realize that it's they themselves who are suffering from beliefs. It's weird.

I mean, if you are accusing someone of something.. You should first check that you aren't the one doing what you accuse others of. I don't think that's too much asked.

   Don't play dumb, you were picking a fight with me here 3 weeks ago, and since then stalked me in this forum just because of a difference in opinion. GTFO me and leave me alone if you have nothin nice to say.

@integral  I agree, there's a mix of genetic components as well as psychological dependence somewhere in that mix. Definitely not the normative relationship.

So weird.. since you initiated the interaction, to which I responded once and ignored your responses...

I'd imagine a festering pile of roadkill would have more self awareness.

I don't mind having a laugh at the cognitive failings of our disadvantaged friend here, but I do resent being cast in the same regard as them. Take a closer look and it is visibly obvious who the catalyst is. You'll have to excuse that I won't sit idle while being misaccused of some juvenile nonsense.

Keeping the thread on topic, I do think there may be a tinge more nuance to the controversy here than I initially gave credence to. I won't say 100% he is a malicious predator, but I will say certainly this is an egregious moral failure nonetheless.

It's simply not possible to be unaware that this act would evoke an adverse reaction. If this is an actual cultural incongruity rooted in Tibetan tradition then I suspect the people who came up with this had impure motives from the get-go.
