All Is Consciousness

I love that about you.

 

So you do not care to confront what I have said but instead want to tell me what you have been doing for 10 years.

In this world the purpose of time is to learn to use it wisely for in time things can be tragic, in eternity they happen not at all. No, you are mistaken, your time is borrowed from gods eternity, there will be a time when time ends and that is the purpose of time, to allow you time, to bring time to an end.

Playboy magazine has been around way longer.

 

Cool. See ya around.

:seeya:

 

I had a question that maybe SidBud could answer about consciousness. Do vampires, ghosts, demons, angels, and warewolves all share the same God samadhi as you? Because this one cute but spooky vamp chick I know says she has no soul or consciousness. She mosdef hangs out with some bad ass demons.

 

I hope you have found all the attention you seek.

 

As for tradition. The word tradition is formed of syllables meaning to trade away or betray.

I once spoke to an ayurevedic practitioner who said that her tradition considers only fresh foods contain vital life force. I pointed out that the tradition was formed before the advent of modern food processing, refrigeration, etc.. She stuck to her traditional belief and so I asked her if that meant that human embryos produced from frozen sex cells are less vital, she responded, yes!

Tradition betrays the emergent for habit, preserving the status quo.

 

Your reachingggggggggggggggggg................................ awe, nothing to see here, move along.

 

Actually I am making a proper accounting. And it is you are, or you're reaching.

You say what must be and state that you have established a tradition of must be, two traditions no less. Why two? I am telling you you make an egoistic attempt at immortality by attempting to establishing traditions.

Great men do not so much great things, as great things happen around them.
You can't even garner a fan club.

Nothing to see because, you're, invisible?

 

I like that quote - "Great men do not so much great things, as great things happen around them."

I have taken a course called, "Greatness." There are many definitions for that word. From popularity, to influence, to innovativeness, and on.

 

I wonder if you know who said it originally, I have long forgotten as these things become part of my fabric.

 

God Is the Doer.

It is often difficult to add a smile, or a wink or personality to comments in forums. Although, we have emocons, they are not that helpful.


:daisy:

 

As a Buddhist I find no 'doer' anywhere. Can you point God out please?

Previously to being a Buddhist I was a Shakta, which means I believed in a Goddess.

What is, is. Who do, do. Sho be do be doo. Who care? Whether God, Goddess, or Pretty Vacant, if you want to work in my kitchen you'd better be able to cook.

 

Look around everything is doing, and there is only One doer, Reality ItSelf. I can point at anything and show you God, you included (when you point at something you have three fingers pointing back at you), you can turn over a rock and find God's Presence, you can swim to the bottom of the ocean and God's Presence Is Shining. The comment was in reference to 'thedope' and this quote:

I was not randomly talking about a doer or non-doing.

 

Hum, I don't know that emoticons add much. We all take it as we will. God is magnanimous intent. Being, is great doing.

 

By the way sb, you've come a long way from, "my words are a sword to expressing doubt about whether you are expressing yourself effectively. I am honored.

 

Yes, the omnipotent tact segued to the 'gee, I'm really a nerd' tact. I think both are the result of too much great kine bud. I doubt anyone is really fooled that he could really change in between a few BBS posts.

As for everything doing things all the time. You obviously have never heard of dependent origination. If you look deeply enough into anything you will find no qualitative or quantitative object. Instead you will the find a lack of inherency.

That which changes changes, that which doesn't change, doesn't change. (Buddha)

Funny for a person to call himself Buddha and still blather about God this and that.

People who talk about God all the time do so to the demerit of everything except their own opinion.

Let's consider that for a second. The last time you have an awesome pizza, what was so great about it? Was the crust crispy or tender? Was it Chicago or Brooklyn style (or Italian?) Have you been to Chicago, Brooklyn, Italy? But anyway, was the sauce, sweet, piquant, spicy, white?

How difficulat is it to describe a pizza? And you want to speak about God? All you and the rest of the pundits can do is mislead others. Nobody can speak about God without depleting the essence from the reality. If there is one.

At times of my life - a few times tripping on acid, a couple times when wearing an overkill amount of rudraksha beads, a handful of times in deep meditation, I have felt what I would call a feeling of sublimity of golden light which was evolutionary and deeply beautiful.

Most times meditating I don't feel so much as experience a calmness and clarity of awareness. At no time did I ever meet God. I may have felt wonderful, but God is largely absent. Or if there is a Goddess she is so encompassing as to have lost the trees for the forest.

Okay, anyway, here we are back to you Buddha Siddha. This is your avatar school.

At this point in your evolution you need a few lessons in how to preach. There are hundreds of thousands of dishroom preachers who take quotes out of context and say the same thing as everyone else.

There are half again as many who twist the language and put their notions into a play on words.

There are almost no people who speak plain language and put things in their own words without the comical twisting of words into specious conceits.

If you could manage to convey the experience that you have without relying on cliches and conceits your message would be better enlarged.

Few people have experienced God. If you differ in your experience then you should really try to convey how God is. If you were somehow able then you would make a real contribution to the body of knowledge.

It would not be easy. Consider how many works have tried to explain God and the relationship between God and human. None have really been successful at that, and most just mislead. But people are not fools. They do not like to be toyed with, especially in the subject of their relationship with their fount.

But those who practice meditation and yoga especially would love reading someone who was able to engage their intuition. Then you would have a real platform and not just be another guru wannabe.

Try to add to the body of knowledge, instead of merely trying to kidnap it through more cliches.

If you studied the religions of the world, you would probably see that they had done as much harm as good. Few religions have developed people's capacity for experience of divinity, more have derailed people's intellects and promoted more misery.

Nobody with smarts would want to create even yet another tradition, which would create yet even more divisions between people.

I would have to ask why anone would want to create yet more divisions between people.

If a new tradition demands the personal interaction between guru and devotee then it cannot survive the death of the guru. What is needed is a new tradition which can effectively and safely promote the spiritual experience for all people and for all time.

 

Words are symbols of conditions. By what ever intent I have become agglomerated, be it gravity, or innate probability, that is what I call god. I do not have an idea of a anthropomorphic personality god, although we can become as personable with our inherent intent, that is to be, as we care to.

God is a word symbol having it's roots in experiential conjugation and most succinctly god is that which is invoked as good cause. Your good is your god as we are devoted in all ways to obtaining our good. There is good and we ought to have it is our motto. We are hard wired to find our good.

I don't think the use of the word god is inherently a disservice to humanity.

 

@Chodpa


You are not offering me much of anything that is a rebuttal worth responding to. The Guru is a function, and through my Lineage the Guru will survive until the Earth is finished. I have practiced and studied philosophy for 10 years, and I have a philosophy master whom I have studied under (Paul Newall). I can talk about Truth in any way I want, the words used to describe Reality can change. I am not caught up in specific words, the True Communication Appears through Silence. Enbrightenment is an integral tradition, and through the Spiritual Cross, ALL religions and traditions can share the Same revelation of Self. No one has to leave their religion for Enbrightenment (just add the Spiritual Cross to your practice), and truly Enbrightenment is the Science of God Realization, which is exposed via the Spiritual Cross. I will post one of my philosophical commentaries. Enjoy.

Starting a new tradition, or even two inter-connected traditions, does not make more problems. If there is a new kind of music, that does not mean other kinds of music have to stop being played, or enjoyed, it simply means music is completely free to be expressed in all sorts of ways, and still be 'music'.

:sunny:

 

So siddha being a philosopher simply means a lover of truth, a far cry from a "realized" being according to your own descriptions. I have to disagree with chodpa about the capacity for change. How long does it take to change if change is the only constant?

One thing I know is that the only truth I will ever know is the truth that I allow for. If I allow for change then probability is on my side.

If you want to have a philosophical discussion, I am game. If you want to pretend to be in some sort of unaffected state then you are not worthy of such a discussion. The truth is the universe is expanding and there is no reason being a part of all there is that you should not expand as well. There is always more to learn. The whole defines the parts but the part does not define the whole, creation is a law without opposite, creation is extension.

 

I am not interested in philosophy other than allowing that practice enhance my (verbiage) linguistic ability to put into words my Testament of bodily Realization. The (using eastern terms) Samadhi that has Realized this body/mind Is the Divine Everlasting Expressed Realization of Eternal Reality, and no effort can achieve and/or bring about the Transcendent Samadhi (the Everlasting Samadhi of Existence ItSelf that Dawns from the Ascending Current of the right-heart), nor can any experience, world, or bodily condition effect, influence, and/or change the Steady-State of the Samadhi of Enbrightenment (Resurrection); and so, this is not on any level of pretending. Don't discard anything regarding Realization from me, all of it is Absolutely Serious, it is my Confession, and Testament. Looks like once again 'thedope' we come to that road where you say something is foul and I disagree.
