Only read this if you are crazy

Coming empty-handed, going empty-handed — that is human. When you are born, where do you come from? When you die, where do you go? Life is like a floating cloud which appears. Death is like a floating cloud which disappears. The floating cloud itself originally does not exist. Life and death, coming and going, are also like that. But there is one thing which always remains clear. It is pure and clear, not depending on life and death. Then what is the one pure and clear thing?

HAHAHAHAHA.

When we put down all conditions, situation and opinions - can suffering remain?

For now, it is just a word. Let's see what we can make out of it.

Yeah. You even said so in the OP, Zenboy.

Birth is the beginning of your existence. We could lead this into the discussion of what exactly your 'self' is, or if such an entity really exists at all, which has probably been discussed only about a billion times since I joined a few years ago. You can still find those threads echoing about in the bowels of the shroomery's collective consciousness if you so desire. But really those types of threads just drag on and on because in the end it's an argument of semantics, because obviously, here we are, whatever we are, and it's a fucking mystery and I'm really tired and I'm going to go allow my self to dissipate into a deep sleep now. Peace, love, and to all.

Semantics? What is semantics?

Ok, my weary eyes can wait a second.
Discussing when a person's life begins and ends (as an entity unique from the universe as a whole) is semantics. We are never completely separate, and depending on where you arbitrarily decide to draw your lines, you can say the self is altogether an illusory construct.
And now really, this poop will have to hold you over until tomorrow.
