Nothing, is the only thing to fear.

The belief in things is the cause fear.

There is nothing.......there is just what is happening.

And wording makes believe things.

In beginning, there was a Great Void

Then, there was the Positive

That, created the Negative


In the end (Death)

you will, either go:

Positive

Negative

Or

Void

Void......is +/-.

And no one will go anywhere...... there's no escape from what's happening.

You mean because it(the void) is the one and only truth that all is returnable too and that it's better to live in the illusion and delusion of Maya.

Quite a few have taken that position Mahayanists try to say it's the road Gautama Buddha took in an attempt to discredit Theravadins; that being a born again slave existing in Maya is better than either samsara or nirvana neither samsara or nirvana and not not nirvana and not not samsara as co-operating causes that only turn beings around to the same point or decision after experiencing the void.

One is beyond rebirth and the reach of death and accumulation of kamma and one is not; thats the real difference people seem to forget parinirvana the last death of an Arhat... sitting in the cessation of all dualities is quite the accomplishment why choose to fall back into the illusion and delusion with the concept that you can teach someone something when all already is void or has buddha "nature"?

It's a circular argument that really has no discernable beginning or end that so called "golden mean or ratio" it's something people have become dependent on and dependent on it or anything else is what gives it an arising or existence the nature of the void is the same when one falls into maya and forgets the samadhi of either off dreaming lost in the illusion ignoring causation lost in the thicket of views seeing the void as a good friend that can't be los is better than fearing the illusions one has accepted to be dependent on and then forgetting that agreement then running and fearful like a slave to it.... as such a thing has already occurred through infinite past lives.

Some seeing that drifting off into maya or dreaming is unavoidable even though human life is short and wish to be reborn as some sort of beneficial fruit to pay for all the eating they have done of other living beings. Just don't complain when you feel the axe or the picking when it's season is my only advice meaning stop dreaming and go back to practice since you made an exchange for self and other deal.

Atheism is actually one of the last tooth fairies. We exist and have purpose, and there is greater Intelligence than us in the universe.

Maybe there is no you at all.

What are you?

This is the holy oil that is called “Christos” in Greek. This is the story of the Christ within, within all of us. The oil is secreted by the cerebrum from the holy claustrum or “santa” claustrum. The story of Santa Claus comes from this inner science because Santa is bringing spiritual presents down your chimney. From the cerebrum/claustrum, it is then differentiated in the pineal gland and pituitary gland. These glands are known as Joseph and Mary.

Taken from a book called 'The Christ is Within All' by Adrian Bonnington.

Well, never thought this thread would make it past a page. Not that I was concerned with pages, but did find it surprising, given the cheekiness of it all.

That said, I will go through and make some replies when I have more time to do so. Thanks for the responses. There are some good ones IMO, thank you ATS.

For now, have a good evening, good morning, or goodnight, depending on your TZ.

Cheers to all!

Problem with your whole statement, bible claims earth was around for a cpuple thousands years, we know for fact its been billions.

Explain that logic cuck

Truth of the matter is there are 2 types of people...

Those who need something or a someone to make there life meaningful

and those who realize you are the maker of your own fate and you determine what becomes of your life.

i dont blame he who is born poor for him thats not his fault

But to die poor i blame him and his choices to not further or better thous life!

Take that in hypocritcal d-bag

you and your family are the ones that go to dinner and pretend life is grand, yet your daughter hates you your sons an addict but you judge all who dont play make believe!
