Posted January 29, 2022 Buddhism is an ideology. Every Buddhist is trying to be a carbon copy of the Buddha, instead of exploring their own unique individuality. Even the best spiritual techniques, when formulized and institutionalized, become dead. Stop clinging to old technologies as if they have any value in of itself. Use psychedelics. أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأشهد أن ليو رسول الله Translation: I bear witness that there is no God but Allah, and Leo [Gura] is the messenger of Allah. "Love is the realization that there no difference between anything. Love is a complete absence of all bias". -- Leo Gura Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't done psychedelics yet, and I still want to try classical spiritual methods. أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأشهد أن ليو رسول الله Translation: I bear witness that there is no God but Allah, and Leo [Gura] is the messenger of Allah.

Posted January 29, 2022 @Husseinisdoingfine Then perhaps you might want to wait with promoting psychedelics who knows, maybe you'll like other practices much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 29, 2022 7 minutes ago, wildflower said: Nobody addressed anything I said in my opening post, are you zombies? Okay I have a few questions. 1. Why do you equate infinity with nothingness? 2. Why do you think the word "I" is a mechanism of separation? Isn't it just the word that God or infinity uses to express that it exists? 3. What is so special about God denying that it exists? To me that sounds like a delusional God. If only God exists then it is appropriate for God to say "Only I exist". It would be false for God to say "I do not exist". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loving itself is the act of renunciation lol, that's the very mechanism of Love. ego is the negation of Love, the ego's main tool 'I' is the tool of separation and segregation. The more God loves itself, the more the ego dies (i.e. renunciation of ego/separation/segregation/selfishness) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 29, 2022 4 minutes ago, Leo Gura said: "When you meet the Buddha, kill him." Im not talking about Siddharta, or his moniker the Buddha. Thats like when talking about gravity having high utility; 'if you meet einstein, kill him' The Buddha espoused a model for renunciation, no other model comes close, its almost perfect. This renunciation model, is literally the embodiment of Love Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
