Good sense.


--------------------

Wherever the hero may wander, whatever he may do, he is ever in the presence of his own essence — for he has the perfected eye to see. There is no separateness. Thus, just as the way of social participation may lead in the end to a realization of the All in the individual, so that of exile brings the hero to the Self in all.

For, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

Icelander said:
So what you're saying is (just like fivepointer) you are over here proselytizing for your religious beliefs.

Well fuck that shit, is all I can say. :thumbdown: This is not your little religious forum for you to pontificate on. Please take it to the Pub.


What is religious about this video?

His robe? The foreign word he used?

The subject matter has more to do with psychology.  Enlightenment is a mental state, it is not a magical spell.

Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man.  For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire.  Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it.

Exaclty thats when people say shit to me for practicing buddhism i just say buddha was like a doctor, he diagnosed suffering and came up with a cure.

Would you rather be miserable in existence or appreciate every last second of it?
We've all felt times where we "lose ourself" and feel free, dont you want to feel like that all the time?
If so, you must die!!!



This sri bhagavan guy is very scientific in his explanantions of brain activity/lobes and spirituality.

He calls science "sheer poetry."

I beleive in what i beleive in, others teachings have helped cement my faith


Question:

Do you think it is beneficial to have very strong beliefs? To have faith?
