  1. Compassion and Taoism

    Changing your perspective if even ever so slightly that you might see through anothers eyes. Feel anothers feelings. Relate on some level, if not many. Not through coincidence, that you happen to have had the same experiences necessarily, but through the love of and for life. You are no longer individualistically wanting only for you. I think females have more of an innate ability for this then do men. As nurturing and caring for a child is generally instinctual for them. Simply by expanding that aspect beyond a personal caring for thier child, the compassion expands. Just imo of course.
  2. 'No self' my experience so far...

    I know you exist -K-. It is always a rhetorical question when I ask it and I honestly feel silly asking it. Do you exist?
  3. 'No self' my experience so far...

    It's sad how your brain is tangled xabir. You don't realize what has happened. I am going to lay it out bare for you that you might understand. The original ponderance when you went to that site was about the "self" not "you" . There is a difference between the self and you, what happened is that after you pondered what is the self, they subtly switched it to you not existing. Of course the weather doesn't have a self, does that mean that weather doesn't exist? You initial reaction after reading this is going to be to formulate a rebuttal, I am going to ask you to hold off on that for only 1 minute and think about why you are formulating a rebuttal.

    So you don't like that the 1st one is kinda implying ownership? I see what you mean.
  5. 'No self' my experience so far...

    Maybe you missed the question as well, I didn't ask how you exist, I ask if you "Vajrahridaya" or whatever your real name may be, is existing? I don't see how you guys make this so hard. http://dictionary.re...om/browse/exist 1. to have actual being; - Do you have actual being? 2. to have life or animation - Are you alive? 3. to continue to be or live: Are you being alive?
  6. Thanks for this post Stig, I don't know if you are directing it towards anyone, but I feel it relates to many things for me. Act of virtue can bring evil, so one does need pay more attention. How do you suggest to stabalize?
  7. 'No self' my experience so far...

    How do you mean?
  8. 'No self' my experience so far...

    Do you exist vaj?
  9. 'No self' my experience so far...

    If you do not exist, then quit pretending you do. If you do not exist, then why pretend to?
  10. Who are you?

    Well to be quite frank, anything I say will be incorrect. So I will give an anology. I am like water.
  11. 'No self' my experience so far...

    It's not a question about the self. It's a question about you.
  12. 'No self' my experience so far...

    This is not something you should leave to chance Seth, believe it or not you do have influence on others. So make sure about it, that is all I ask.
  13. Yeah man, that's why I am trying to keep people from convincing themselves that! Fortunately most here see the absurdity of it.
  14. If you don't exist then why are you here? This world is a place where people exist, if you don't then why are you here? I would reccommend you to go back to your hole, where you can not exist in peace. Then think about how you can exist.
  15. 'No self' my experience so far...

    Do you exist? A simple yes or no will suffice. If you say yes, then go explain it to the guys at RT how you can exist. Then post a link so either A. Your point is proven, and they aren't convincing people they don't exist B. My point is proven and they are convincing people they don't exist. Ask anyone of the blue's/red's if they exist, or if it is possible to exist. Sounds absurd right? Just look.
  16. 'No self' my experience so far...

    You should maybe explain to everyone that you don't exist before hand. Maybe they can kinda get the idea. You disguise it as no-self, but what is it really? It is not existing. See the deception how they change it from the self doesn't exist to you don't exist? How can you not see the absurdity? Not only that, but you drag others into not existing. I happen to exist and enjoy it just fine If you don't want to exist go to ruthless truth! Then you can put on a blindfold and play pretend.
  17. 'No self' my experience so far...

    There is nothing to get, rofl.
  18. depends, are you referring to the ego? or the awareness in which everything arises? Which anything that arises within awareness can't possibly be the self. Yes you will find all sorts of things that makes a tree a tree. It's a compilation of things No any single thing. So, do you exist?
  19. Three Kinds of Spiritual Teachings.

    Getting rid of belief is easy. Just stop assuming.
  20. Definitely don't need more religions imo. We have seen how they can be easily manipulated by those with power desiring more.
  21. So you guys want to get together an build one?

  23. Careful with wording here. Do you mean he don't exist at all, or the thought doesn't exist?
