I agree I am insane, have always been...thankfully not fanatic though I am not threatened for sure, as I am open to investigating my belief system or practice - which is Taoism more than anything else - but tired for sure, reading through the last 6+ pages on this thread

I get a feeling that YOU are the Maitreya Buddha! Who claims to have studied it all, and know it all

There is not much to argue right here. You say: - I have studied it ALL, reached the summit of all its teachings, and discarded them. - What I have studied - I am not stating anything here- I will throw a few names - and give the link to a online Text Repository! Remember, I have read it ALL - And what I say is the only correct thing: - Why? Because: a. Hindus don't know stuff and their teachings are useless b. Mikaelz, Buddha and some Rinpoche - in that order - say so! And sometimes Nagarjuna too. c. My experience tells me I am right and rest is wrong - I am enlightened you idiots Salute to Master Vajrahridaya... Santi, you should seriously change your name from Vajrasattva to something else. Hatred/division and its opposite that you represent seem to have nothing in common.

If we are handing out medals, let me give one to Dwai. He has loads of direct experiencing and is a very good, mature seeker.

Not that deluded in Samsara yet. It does not work for some reason! Bodhisatvas have waged a war I guess, like the episodes in Manjushri mula kalpa or guhyasamaja tantra

Okay! This is the Buddhist view. You think it's true based on what you think Buddha said and what another master said. But that is your reason, especially when talking of something as subtle and complex as enlightenment, to say "this is the only way and the right way". If it is right for you, so be it! But understand that these are Buddhist concepts and mean nothing significant to others. These need not be universally true, till proven by direct experience. And I would doubt if such an experience can ever be translated to words. Your experience and true for you alone. There is probably someone else who has a similar experience with Tibetan Buddhism. We cannot make generic conclusions on this line. I wish you only followed your own advice Jeez! It would have been better if you stated only Mahayana satisfactorily answered [/i]your[/i] questions. Have you studied Pratyabhijna-Vrtti, or Shiva sutra vimarshini or Tantraloka (rare translations hooola...)? Have you studied Siddhasiddhanta Chandrika that talks only about after life? Yoga Vasistha is a very recent work and is hardly used by any traditional aspirant to study. It does not represent any particular tradition - neither the laghu or brhat vasistha - and your repeated naming of that book alone speaks a lot! Have you studied Panchastavi? Have you studied Svacchanda Tantra? I am surprised you did not find answers to these basic questions! Seriously you believe in this bunch of myths and tales? There are a load of such tales depicting gory battles between Buddhist and Hindu deities, of Bodhisatvas accepting Hindu female deities - wives of other hindu male deities - as there sexual partners blah blah. I am surprised that you quoted this here as though this bundle of myth is of some importance! Some of those tales make a good fantasy movie. Don't mean to get personal, but your claim to bring in authencity to your argument repetedly by claiming youve seen it all in Advaita/Shaivism - is an important thing to be considered here. There is nothing to refute here as you've not stated anything substantial from any of these schools here. But here is something I read .. So does this describe your supposed "well-versed" path along Advaita Vedantaor Advaya Shaivism?

Not much use reading it! So you may as well skip that trouble .. the essence is: Buddhist teachings are the best, why... Dependent Origination... And we all want to see what we want to right? Like you at this very moment ...
