The mind imagines what is not happening - yesterday, tomorrow.
But the mind cannot imagine what is really happening - this that IS is unspeakable and ungraspable, unavoidable and undeniable.

Well it is practical in the sense that instead of believing what the thoughts say and being lost in thought - you are seeing and hearing what is
really going on.
Beings who are not totally without thought refers to those whose bodies are originally thoughtless matter, but who...
Find this, then read about Nirvana with residue. Wisdom will require the Bodhisattva first, refining the virtues and wisdom so that they are extinct.
Extinction does not mean our western definition, but a non-polarized state of Sicknenss and Medicine, which leaves the higher mind in its wake (no
residue). The state of virtue ends in Bliss, but never apart from being the Bodhisattva as the domesticated buffalo. There are three Buffalo.
I cannot show you better than your comments reveal. Horns emerging from the weeds. Buffalo one is introduced to you.
The buffalo’s head sprouts horns
As he emerges from the weeds (relatives),
In a dream, he tries to speak
Of the valley of the timeless spring.
Although he has bathed in the fragrant waters,
I hit, saying, “Not Good Enough!
How will you impart strength to others?”
Arjuna had to humble himself before the one speaking to both you and I on this thread. There is a third member to this conversation, but you will
miss this entirely if your judgment blinds the conversation. This does not imply that you must agree with me. I am not the third mind in this
conversation. Skip over to any other part of your life and the same stone blocks the well. Clear way the stones.
Lots of bumperstickers getting tossed tonight. This sounds like BS every time I hear it! You are either claiming that in all of human history, you
will not admit to anyone ever being liberated/Enlightened?
Yet, here we are, in Buddha Bodies. Enlightenment is the first step of the realization process to see yourself by the function of the Buddha Body you
occupy. The second step is entering the stream to wash off the mud (Sickness and Medicine). Step three is turning back to the Assembly to impart
strength. Most people who think enlightenment has arrived are deluded in the stream. This now is the burden we must carry for others.
All of the Sages in the past are right here today in the first Resurrection. Born again. All 7 billion of us. ONE resurrection of both the living
and dead at one time. Fruit must be produced if the next tree is to grow.
You are not an Asura and then a Deva. You are both. You are here to do battle in the heart, where the Asura and Deva meet between the underworld
and present life lived. Finding the higher nature is first seeing and recognizing it, then adapting your Dharma to it. Buddha Body (where we are
now) is the vehicle for now. ALL beings now. This order of things has not yet passed.

Popped some valiums and sitting outside with some tobacco i think i can now truly appreciate ur words today i got drunk from the 'draught of
immortality' and mostly today i was in a state of speculation it felt very manical thinking of other ways to connect such ideas and it felt good when
i found something that held true in my court i went i forgot the judge that judged what held true for the writer. Both are the same built the same. We
inherently all know truth. in the study of such artful beautiful text i b elieve i dwelved in unprepared i now believe what ive done today was just a
check list for the demon inside me to acknowledge his existence,i entered into unknown territory with no respect thinking the knowledge was mine
comparing it to myself. u showed me the otherside and now i believe whati truly lack is respect. From now on i will stay silent knowing what i know
morally with no need for tests, as long as my body is still alive i will put it to use i have neglected what nature has given me dwelling on matters
of nature itself
