  1. Apology to Buddha/ism/ists

    idiot_stimpy replied to eye_of_the_storm's topic in General Discussion

    Well people suggest that Theravada Buddhism is the cosmic suicide club. Annihilation of self. You have now been terminated.
  2. When I meditate on emptiness, lately there has been a big pain and block in my neck at the base of the skull. Like something is drilling. I have done a search and the only relief I have found so far is stretching and doing the neck lock, where you pull your head back and push your jaw down to open up everything.

  4. Buddha vs Mara short video

    idiot_stimpy replied to idiot_stimpy's topic in Buddhist Discussion

    Its a good movie. I remember watching it in the early nineties and completely forgot about it. Definitely worth the watch if you're interested in Buddhism. The movie tells the story of the Buddha, his life and explains basic Buddhist philosophy, such as reincarnation and the middle path. The heart sutra is chanted in one scene. The video clip I posted it probably the most profound scene.

  6. Buddha vs Mara short video

    idiot_stimpy replied to idiot_stimpy's topic in Buddhist Discussion

    I find this video to be very interesting in relation to the Buddhist concept of emptiness. The phenomenal and conceptual world to be an illusion, a mirage, and does not inherently exist. The seeing of 'subject' and 'object' as no more than ideas and labels, the mind falls into a deep peaceful space. It cannot be rightly called space because it is not a concept, it cannot be labelled at all.

  12. Feels like Death -shamatha before bed

    idiot_stimpy replied to Tibetan_Ice's topic in Buddhist Discussion

    Everyone has death hanging over them. Better to accept it now and be free, than on your death bed.
  13. The Sword of Emptiness cuts everything so there is nothing left to grab hold of and feel safe. Falling back gracefully into the void.

  17. Experience is an idea, awareness is an idea, myself is an idea. Ideas, thoughts and labels come and go.
  18. I understood what you wrote. Other than the part where you state their position is untenable and they do not understand, your reply was quite beautiful.
  19. I don't know of anything else other than enlightenment, in order to be free and detached from former beliefs that trouble you. The Buddha sought enlightenment to put an end to suffering. To be free from the conditions that caused suffering to arise.
