Will you come with us? * 3
    #23540143 - 08/14/16 08:44 AM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Will you come with us? Not for now but, for every incarnation after this this lifetime upward?

To help as many beings as possible, in the best possible way, by the best that is in you, untiring and for their sake?

Will you come with us?

Here is the vow.
Read it.
Think about it.
If you decide to take it, place your hands on your heart, get in the Now and speak your vow with conviction.
If not, all is well too. It is entirely voluntary.

Will you come with us?


Quote:

:om:


Just as all the previous Sugatas, the Buddhas
Generated the mind of enlightenment
And accomplished all the stages
Of the Bodhisattva training,

So will I too, for the sake of all beings,
Generate the mind of enlightenment
And accomplish all the stages
Of the Bodhisattva training.


:om:[






If you have taken the vow, the wheels are set in motion. The train will get on steam and in time leave the station. You will find what you need along the way.

Reflect on when you want to achieve this Enlightenment:
Like a KING - as soon as possible so you can help as many as possible, as soon as possible and as well as possible.
Like a BOATMAN - so that you will cross over into Enlightenment with many others.
Like a SHEPHERD - you will wait until the flock is safe before becoming enlightened.

While the vow is Buddhist, there is nothing specifically Buddhist about this path. It is all inclusive, for those inclined in the right way. Ultimately we will all go this way, Buddhist or no.

I'm curious which ones of you have taken the vow, if any and whatever ontopicness you wish to discuss.

Nope. I'm going to the halls of the gods to dine with my friends and ancestors until Ragnarok.

Yes!

:namaste:

Thank you for the extra inspiration.
I am sitting in meditation right now .

"To the Buddha, the Dharma and the Excellent Sangha I go for refuge until Bodhi is realized. As the mind of excellent Bodhi arises, all beings I will invite to the banquet as guests. May all beings be well and happy, may all beings be free of fear and pain. May I awaken quickly for the benefit of all beings"

:aum:

Might be busy...depends on the consequences of my life of course.

I'd like to say i'm in, but there is no train on the other side is there?


--------------------
I'm sick of all you hypocrites
Holding me at bay
And I don't need your sympathy
To get me through the day
Seasons change and so can I
Hold on boy, no time to cry
Untie these strings, I'm climbing down
I won't let them push me away

Not just for everyone else's sake. Helping oneself is crucial too, both in the sense of growth and self-compassion. After all, if a person is not at a healthy and happy state themselves, what coherent help can they offer others? People often have to be somewhat selfish with their time in order to put in the work to maintain health and sanity. I guess one of the messages is to have the underlying motivation of doing that self-work at least partially for the sake of others.

One glaring problem with unchecked solidarity is that it can easily put people into a position where they let themselves be taken advantage of. Some people will absolutely drown you if they're toxic and you give them enough agency with your life, and unfortunately I know because of experience. Some amount of realism has to be applied when deciding the depth of compassion to offer another person.

That said, I do feel like there's a lot to the message of solidarity and enlightenment, and the related practices.

I spoke this vow before I ever began to speak.
