Vedas will in no way predate Sanskrit since the origin of Sanskrit is circa 1500 BCE.

That was propaganda from the U.S military. What Wikileaks did was what any first rate investigative journalist should be doing. Assange should be honored instead of being vilified.
-
That is very profound and realistic! Thank you!

Censorship On The Dependent Origination Thread
ralis replied to ralis's topic in Forum and Tech Support
Actually I never stopped reading and am very well read. There are many other sources I could reference. However, that one is the most well known. -
I don't need to study anything. I was born with great compassion. That is natural to me.
-
This discussion still generally lies in the realm of theory and no real world experience. Ya Mu requested examples and none are given. The Buddhists still remain in airy fairy land and will never want to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty for fear of a contaminated DO experience.
-
Exactly what is spiritual and what is not spiritual? Would you care to define your ideological belief?

Censorship On The Dependent Origination Thread

It was Gerard who complained. I guess some Buddhists are really attached to controlling others. My link -
I knew it was you who reported what you don't like and you have some need to control what others read!

Censorship On The Dependent Origination Thread

You would like to have that power? What you censored went down the memory hole. I read 1984 when I was very young and it left a lasting impression. -
The language that was removed is part of the context. You changed the intent and feel of the post. That is censorship.
-
No thanks!
-
What is so virtuous about riding a pedi bike all day?
-
I guess you want to be a victim of DO as opposed to using your talents to take care of yourself. What are you afraid of? Perhaps you have no psychic powers!
-
What gives cat the right to edit posts? This is censorship!
-
If Vajraji was as psychic as he claims to be, he wouldn't need to be riding his pedi bike all day. He would be making millions in the stock market. He could find a job with Goldman Sachs.
-
No teacher has a right to determine when someone is ready. That should be independently determined by the student.
-
The problem with all the esoteric practices that Vajraji promotes is that they are only available to a few. Unless the preliminaries are completed, no one receives the real teachings. Even then it is doubtful. What I question is the sudden availability of thousands of texts. When Tibet fell, only a few texts survived the passage to India. The rest were lost when the Chinese destroyed most monasteries.

He has no substantive evidence to present. The only ones that benefit are the Lama's that sit on their golden thrones and are taken care of by their devotees.
-
There were several requests made for concrete evidence that makes D.O special. So far no substantive evidence has been given. Now D.O. is saving other worlds in your view. Exactly which ones? Mars?
-
I am just practicing D.O. My responses are dependently originated from your preaching.
-
Have you come to know yourself completely? If not, then cease the judgment of others!
-
You have judged me in the same way many times and much more harshly!
-
How many thousands of hours have you spent online preaching? Yet you have stated any number of times on here that you don't have any money to help your wife obtain her green card. I guess that is the fault of dependent origination?
