a fellow bum shared this on his FB -
icedude , why resort to insults? that is bad form on your part. or does it reveal your level of enlightenment? when I see someone resort to insults as their way of continuing their argument , I see it as a form of resignation. I am kinda disappointed that you choose to give up so easily. oh well

"Funny, funny." have you even spent any time on those sub- forums to see where we are already on TTB? of you just chose to come on in and sharing your 'enlightenment' upon us? "Also, there's no point to all these huge pictures and videos." if there wasn't I wouldn't have posted them. have you even read genesis? or the ancient greeks? how about kant? " We never have direct experience of things, the noumenal world, and what we do experience is the phenomenal world as conveyed by our senses" you came here telling us that you are enlightened and waiting for a temple to be built that can appropriately judge your achievement and bestow you a diploma, I have missed where you have expressed anything relating to this enlightenment/ it seems you have a decent sense of humor and I am just trying to play along. I know that these mystical moments can seem ineffable. but if you are grounded sufficiently here in reality then you could be able to translate the enlightening experience in a way we common folk could understand. saying that you have seen the book but forgot to get the isbn # isn't so helpful for us. I will try to focus and concentrate while you explain enlightenment. I am a bit slow and apologize for that.

"Just because they didn't promote schools, it doesn't mean that they would oppose them either. They just didn't bring future schools up, also because they had no idea that those schools would survive that far." @icedude, lao Tzu and chaung Tzu advise us to step away from knowledge. other ancient sages from other cultures i.e. greeks tell us the same thing. in the book of genesis, same thing. having said that, I get a diploma this may hehehe well I will if I can stay off ttb long enuff to finish my thesis, ha!

I wish I had magpies visiting here. I am lucky to have the crow and blue jay hanging about. they watch me more than I watch them. I imagine that magpie would be similar.

"What do they speak about, I wonder?" this is one of the big big wonderings but I reckon they speak the language of Tao -
