neoBuddhism (Page 3) allenmayes: the cloud of consciousness is a succession of cycles that defy understanding.and also time is relative. doesnt matter if we live a day or a 100 years deuce916: Well if buddhists do all that chanting to avoid suffering, why would they want the suffering? allenmayes: worries will always assail us.— As you lie in bed preparing for your nightly slumber, remember that the last thought you have in your mind can last up to four hours in your subconscious mind. That’s four hours of programming from just one moment of contemplation prior to going into your unconscious state. Create a reminder like a prayer or mantra to place by your bed. Write these words and read them as you get comfortable: I am going to use these moments to review what I intend to manifest into my life. Keep that sign there to remind you how to spend your pre-sleep moments nightly. good luck...  Corwin: If you walk around on a rainy day wearing only a pair of socks, you are likely to catch a cold.   diolover71: Razors edge Outlines the dead Incisions in my head Anticipation the stimulation to kill the exhilaration Close your eyes Look deep in your soul Step outside yourself And let your mind go Frozen eyes stare deep in your mind as you die. Close your eyes And forget your name step outside yourself and let your thoughts drain as you go insane...go insane. Innate seed to watch you bleed a demanding physical need Desecrated,eviscerated Time perpetuated. Inert flesh A bloody tomb a decorative splatter brightens the room An execution a sadistic ritual Mad intervals of mind residuals. Seasons in the Abyss by Slayer (Post deleted by Farwuq ) Corwin: Him who?? You mean "Him" Him?.... "The" Him? Or was that a typo... like maybe you meant "Nobody listen to Jim, or Tim, or maybe Kim." Does anybody know a Jim here on Wire? I don't think I do... which is odd when you think about it - it's a very common name. I once knew five Mikes at the same time... a lot of Mikes back then. Lot's of Dave's too... I have a brother-in-law named Dave... he's an idiot... but I've met other Daves who were very nice. Speaking of Inuit Native Soapstone Carvings, did you know that a former Prime Minister once beat an intruder unconscious with an Inuit Carving? Well he did. That reminds me of a friend I had who ate an entire 3 lb block of cheddar cheese in one sitting... his bowels didn't move for 4 days... bunged him up real good. So, why is there Buddhism again?? allenmayes: truth is more charitable than whether considerations of spiritual parvenu exists.. par se..... Corwin: When choosing a wood-chipper as a means of suicide, it is best to jump in head-first rather than feet-first. Corwin: I don't like taking tests. But a cold beverage would be nice right about now... I'll definitely take one of those.... Nathaniel Nirvana: bodhisattva ~ like a flower in the rain........that's nice, but with refererence to stimulants....isn't the rain a stimulant to the flower? and, if nothing has inherant existence then neither do stimulants....or lust, or whatever other attatchments............I say be aware of attatchments but that doesn't mean we who are unenlightened should live so sparingly.......why do that when pleasures are preferable to sufferings......if we know it's not real......like in a lucid dream we'd focus on the nice stuff not make it minimalist..........I think there's a difference between having attatchments & over attatchments............& some ppl, like me, aren't strong enough or far enough along the path to put up with all the ageing, sickness, death without a few attatchments, I guess allenmayes: the cloud of disenchantment is a blessing.all life is an intricate pattern of contrivances. in other words its a configuration of internal thought less patterns... LarsPowderdry2: quite simply put the predicament of being alive is dependant on 'being' being like a fish out of water.... | Philosophy Chat Room 8 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
