Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

Are you asking me for a secret recipe or ingredient? I don't trust your cooking skills with such information...if I had it. :) I don't think that's something you should brag about. That I don't have a secret recipe or ingredient? Why? It would be wise just to smell your own shit and stop sniffing a...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

Are you asking me for a secret recipe or ingredient? I hardly think I would be interested in intoxicated crazy crap hypnotic cuckcoo juice. But that's your own recipe that you live on. I don't trust your cooking skills with such information...if I had it. :) The only reason you don't have it is bec...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

Well, probably not, because such is the telltale sign of people who are intoxicated with their crazy crap. Diversion or foggy brain...whatever antics it takes to avoid letting go of their special blend of hypnotic cuckcoo juice. Do you have any alternative cooking up your sleeve ? could your psycho...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

Dontaskme, I thought you were "closing" this thread. Did they deny your moderator application? your reply doesn't say anything to the question, it diverts away. Really? Someone else on the forum is doing this?! Can you answer this question straight up without using bamboozling tactics? Wel...

Just have a great big laugh over my posts, with those who laugh too, I hope you enjoy the entertainment Well, I actually wish there was more to it, in interactions with you (which is why I've tried, as nondual concepts are not foreign to me)... but whatever specific trip you're on doesn't seem near...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

DAM, You said no thing is being born...AT THE SAME TIME as you are talking about someone being born. You said you conceive yourself...AT THE SAME TIME as you are saying that the choice of life is made by others. You said the illusion is very often desired...AT THE SAME TIME as you are saying that li...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

DAM... I'm sincerely focused on clarity and truth. This isn't complicated, I promise. Please just give it a chance. Who told you - you are living? Are you asking ME? Yes I am. Who told you - you are alive? I didn't say anyone told me -- so I don't understand why you're turning this question on me wh...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

I write in a way so that things appear to be the case, but on closer inspection and with hindsight what I have REALLY been saying becomes clear. I write this way, to SHOW with examples from "others", WHY it is better to ALWAYS REMAIN OPEN and ask clarifying questions, INSTEAD of ASSUMING ...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

I’m getting confused about what you are saying to me I was just repeating your words back to you to see if you could step back and observe/explore/explain the disparity between your claims. But I think you've indicated that you want to speak your mind in any given moment without worrying about cons...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

The last thing, I found, that a person wants when they are 'down' is to be told things like; "You should not feel that way and it is better if you do this and do that". When 'you', human beings, start REALLY Listening to each "other", then you will move forward, instead of movin...

Re: DAM asked: "Is being born worth it - or is it better to have never been born?"

no one who is living ever had the choice of whether to live or not How do you know this? How do you know that there wasn't some awareness and creative surge completely different than what you're aware of now? Who told you - you are living? Are you asking ME? You are the one who made the statement a...

no one who is living ever had the choice of whether to live or not How do you know this?

So you find yourself alive and you don't like ...
