Is there anything in particular you want to discuss about this video? Perhaps even make a short description about it?

oh I tried to at first but I don't even know what to say. The man's words have blown my mind. He has almost perfectly put together everything I've been learning and studying for the past couple years since first delving into the psychedelic experience and buddhism.

Apparently some teenagers are attempting to record for a comedy public access television show when they happen upon an amazing homeless man named Vivek who reluctantly gives them some lessons in life and the universe. Vivek is a genius and it is well worth the time to view. I'm going to be showing this to everyone that I can who hasn't already discovered it.

I guess you could just say, in a few lines, the idea that the dude wants to transmit, what impressed you most, which of his words made you think he's a genius.
38 minutes is kind of a long time to watch a video, especially since it doesn't have introduction. :shrug:
Also, this is a philosophical forum, and when you open a thread you have to present the idea that you want discussed.

Yeah, what of it? The Buddha was a homeless beggar during the majority of his path to enlightenment.

So, what's the message he's transmitting? Surely you can make a short description.

* Sarcasm doesn't work so well on the internet in case you haven't ever noticed. If anybody else gave it a chance they might actually be literally wowed as I was.

Or like these people in another thread I just discovered were http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/6682799

and what else? That guy couldn't come up with a brief summary either but people still gave it a chance and thoroughly enjoyed the video without any snide remarks.

* Personalisms such as Well thanks douchebag. are not allowed in this forum.

Wow, easy! How can someone that's so into enlightenment and all that crap, preaching about the goodness of the universe, get so butt-hurt?

This is P&S, maybe you should read the rules of this forum before posting here, rules which clearly state:

Quote:

3)If you're going to post a link to a video or external web page, also please include a description of what the link is about and a proposed topic for discussion. Posts not conforming to this will be deleted.




I don't see any reason to post a video in a philosophy oriented forum, if you're not going to present your personal idea about it, along with a description of the ideas presented in that video, and expect people to watch it. You have the pub for that kind of crap. :shrug:

Perhaps my choice of words were unnecessary but I think sentiments are more important than strict rules of conduct that draw a fine line between flaming using curse words and flaming through simple disrespect. I know I've a long way to go in coming anywhere close to enlightenment and I am still extremely bound to worldly faults and desires. I'm not pretending to be above petty emotions such as you described being "butthurt." I felt disrespected and retaliated. I understand trying to keep this place mellow but I guess I just thought my remark wasn't such a big deal. Great to know the mods here are hard a**es and I need to tread lightly.


Maybe I should have attempted to give a better explanation of the video and such a vague post should have belonged in the pub but I didn't think it being there would have garnered the respect and attention it deserved. I guess my mistake was thinking that people here would be different than the pub and actually pay attention before offering their worthless 2 cents. I thought that the video would speak for itself far greater than any words I could have come up with to summarize it and so I left it briefly and attempted to let viewers find out for themselves

I will refrain from such actions in the future but I personally find this all to be.. uh.. bull... something.. :shrug: my bad.

so why not actually say something with substance now, and right your wrong?

atleast share a particular quote you liked or something.

We are gods because we are good men, and we know everything, because we started first when knowing ourselves.

Honestly I've just been drunk and I've had priorities in the real word that held weight over settling this discrepancy. Also, I've hoped that people would just find out for themselves. I presented the information to you, why do you guys need my own opinion before anything else? I don't have anything great to say at all. Vivek is the man who has devoted his life to the spiritual quest. I am an observer and I was merely trying to pass the vision on to others who might appreciate it.
