  1. Hello, I am a solo cultivator

    Hi. Welcome to the forum.
  2. How do you practise?

    I posted it before, imo Unota is enlightened (this being online, yes I am being serious).
  3. The trinity - how do you interpeted it

    “personification … A great loss IMO.” You mean like this:
  4. simplify

    Now. (rhyming slang)
  5. simplify

    and then
  6. For a moment there I was envisaging you sliding down from the PLATEAU, down the SLOPE (just for fun because you know the way up again anyway). Righto.
  7. @Nungali in my estimation has about 60 years experience. See picture, imo he’s firmly at the “Plateau”. The Cad in my estimation spent max 3 years reading online disinformation and imo is firmly on the first “Peak”.

  13. @ChiDragon I think this is a good example of how a native speaker (in this case of Greek) can misread the ancient texts.
  14. This is right. It’s old (Koine) Greek and means “not overcame” https://biblehub.com/text/john/1-5.htm This is wrong. This is confusing it with modern Greek (it understands - καταλαβαίνει)
  15. Junior needs guidance

    Cold showers in some may increase the risk of stroke or heart attack.
  16. It’s a beautiful picture. But imo the dragon needs to be green and must have only 4 toes (5 = emperor; 3 = Japanese). Green and #4 relate to Wood.
  17. OP: “What would happen if people collectivley decided that money/currency has no value in itself, and abanded it?” Nothing would happen. Due to a technicality, nothing needed to be abandoned.
  18. How empty is no emptiness meditation?

    I believe that is your understanding and opinion. I will not argue about that. I can only tell what it is, other than what it is not. Peace! (CD)
