@Jannes A lot of girls I am have been with don’t care about dick size. It doesn’t really matter. A lot of what makes great sex is your energetic framing, touch, fingering, etc. You don’t need a massive Hog. I mean, a nice dick is a plus. But, from what they tell me they don’t mind smaller dick guys. Average is good. I am not admitting my dick size here btw that’s only for de ladies to find out.

I do suspect she lies a lot to make her seems special. Like she is a reincarnation of a great yogi is one of them.

@SimpleGuy I think, as someone who goes through and deals with victim mindset from time to time…. I think gratitude, recalling past wins and successes, and taking action toward your goals even if it seems like it’s failing, or whatever. Always take a step forward anyway. Really, it’s hard to say because it’s different for everyone. Sometimes you just are in a shitty state. It will pass.

I’m not a fan, But, I remember watching some video of a guy judging her “2020 predictions that 2020” would be a really bad year for the world…. He was like “yeah right”…. Then, she was right, sorta. She’s an interesting person.

The Buddha as popular as he is today would make billions? He’s selling Buddha statues, tattoos, books about Buddhism, and Buddha bowls. Mans it raking in the cash.

@UnbornTao Yeah I thought he layered returned but then recalled he did, but not to his roles. However, it remains that he did have teachings for house holders. He didn’t have an illusion of a whole world of monks.
-
@UnbornTao Well, he was a prince. I was wrong about a couple things. He lived in poverty by choice for 45 years after

@Eskilon It was the value he contributed to others. He ultimately did not teach poverty. How he positioned himself was key to his work. He was also an extraordinary individual. He focused on his work and his teachings. His wealth came from being a prince. But, as a prince he could not pursue his work. At his time he could not build wealth while also pursuing truth and awakening. We live in an age where you can develop wealth, and you can then go about your spiritual pursuits. This possibility is there for modern humans. How Leo positioned himself is key to his work. Leo is wealthy I think, and he does not pursue wealth but consciousness and understanding. The trick is not letting it corrupt you. This is my opinion. I respect different approaches. There is no one path, so do as you see fittest. A key difference is the teachings he gave to his monks- Acetic poverty and house holders - healthy relationship to wealth. A monk is like a little Buddha clone. They are designed and programmed to access his awakening and to preserve his teaching. Again, there was no written language back then and therefore a monk is like a form of spiritual technology. They also continued to evolve and contribute to the body of work by being full time. But, I think most of us here are considered householders. We can build wealth and manage it well is taught by Buddha. Being wealthy is spiritual. Poverty, is not required.

@Eskilon That is not why he is known. Study the Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching that Thich-Hat- Nanh. Buddha actually contributed a teaching and system for transcending suffering and living a good life. It’s a powerful system. But, it in truth does not promote poverty as a core tenant. Many people choose to be poor as part of an ascetic spiritual path. Many misunderstand Buddha and choose to be poor. But, it’s not the focus on why Buddha is known.
-
The Buddha clearly teaches non-violence. But, does not teach non-wealth. He teaches non-attachment. But, not poverty.
-
@Eskilon There is almost no people in general who are enlightened. You are side stepping my point about Buddha’s view on wealth with a general platitude. Be careful there. Wealth seeking perhaps is an important stage of life to build the foundation of freedom for spiritual pursuits. Most humans will not truthfully pursue enlightenment. Truth is, most poor people are doomed to constant stress, survival and craving and have 0 chance of deep spiritual progress. Wealth is key in modern age to truly become spiritually developed. The trick with Buddhism is how you are using your mind to create suffering. Wealth doesn’t inherently stop one from enlightenment. But, wealth seeking as an attitude can be toxic.
