I enjoyed ur posts, Vaj. I wish you luck in all your endeavours.

So... persecuted minorities should just pack up and go home, Wil? I know you don't mean that... or rather, I HOPE you don't mean that... And yes, you're right -- I should've said "apathy"...

Karma is important, but the wishy-washy, infantile approach most have to this quite sophistcated for its time concept is not the truth of the matter. Karma, "work/action"... ka... making, ma, measuring -- how you colour (your actions and opinions) the world in turn, colours you. There's no...

There ARE no atheists without God.... So they really are part of the theist paradigm!

what I don't understand is.... why can I feel waves of pessimism here? "Yeah, we know"... "so what"... Or is that just me?

only 40? congratulations!

IMHO, Operacast, all nations have caste systems, even if they pretend to be egalitarian. Yes, liberal types of people view this as fundamentally wrong. We all should be equal. But we're not. No matter how much we pretend, the rich and the clever will look down their noses at those who...

I wouldn't mind if their was a mosque next door, so long as there was a big fence, and so long as they didn't wake me up in the morning. I would also expect not to be harrassed by men if I chose to pop to the shop in mid-thigh shorts and sandals, and I would hope they would be okay with me...

...saw a similiar thread to this, and replied that... I've never seen angels, but I have seen people, with coloured auras, but this, for me, is a rare occurance. .... I met a witch, once, who was very deep blue, with twinkly stars. I saw the blue and the stars before I knew this person was a...

I have, and do occasionally see human beings wrapped in various colours -- yet I have never met a being who wasn't human...

buddhanet.com also has a good list (of buddhist texts)

checked and read the links... cheers for that, seattle. I am now, though.... perplexed. With Mu waves. As I read it... there appears to be a ... way the mind reboots itself. This is a constant, and subconscious process, a way of the brain assimilating and processing visual...

Forms: intellectual heavens? "...a pristine region of the physical universe located above the surface of the Earth... a "place beyond heaven"... Ideals: forms? Abstracts! And back again to the whole two truths thing, for me: conventional truth (samvrttisatyam), and ultimate truth...

theory of forms: skanda: (lit.) heap. ... Of course Plato would suggest that "that non-material abstract ... and not the material world of change... possess the highest and most fundamental kind of reality." -- He's a frickin' philosopher. Of course he's gonna place great store in...

"...a bare particular of an object is the element without which the object would not exist, that is, its substance, which exists independent from its properties, even if it is physically impossible for it to lack properties entirely. It is "bare" because it is considered without its properties...
