Then in the evening Ven. Sariputta left his seclusion, went to Ven. Yamaka, and on arrival exchanged courteous greetings. After an exchange of friendly greetings & courtesies, he sat to one side. As he was sitting there, he said to Ven. Yamaka, "Is it true, my friend Yamaka, that this evil...

No, they should not be taken literally.

Words are like magic

What lies beyond the door is mysterious and celestial.

Jesus and buddah, for it is by virtue of their purity that they cross beyond the reach of death. By looking into their eyes you see the soul of purity. Do you have examples to live by? :) Pleasure to meet you. God bless.

The question What is this? leads to science. The question Who am I? leads to spirituality.

My worldview is that the point of origin of all creation we see is c o s m i c. So I see all living beings: plants, dogs,and humans alike, as intergalactic and interdimensional aliens. Aliens in the truest sense of the word, because the mind (what we call soul, aatman, anatman, etc) is an...

I think I love your question. I wish they'd remain shut eternally.

Hi, I'm just introducing myself :) I'm here cause it would be nice to share knowledge and learn, and I only wish to free people from suffering--and the truth sets us free. I have no religion. My only allegiance is to the truth. My plan is to spend these last years in civilization, work hard...

If someone is ugly, or evil, or hateful...why do we grab their ugliness and keep it close to our hearts? Just thinking bad of someone is a mistake. We should only keep love in our hearts. Everything else is a mistake and a diservice to our selves, our minds and our hearts. Everyone deserves...

Beautiful question which allows a door to open into T o t a l K n o w l e d g e. This means total comprehension of natural law. To have a pure heart and purify it and guard the mind is not only possible, but it is the only way, only way, I repeat a thousand times; the only way, to uncover the...
