Religion is Man- Made
“ A theologian is like a blind man in a dark room searching for a black cat which isn't there - and finding it! “ - unknown “Since no one really knows anything about God, those who think they do are just troublemakers” Rabia Al-Basri “Religion is man-made. Even the men who made it cannot agree on wh...

Re: Barking up the wrong tree of life
Or, do you consider "lol" to be a fuller, more rich and faceted barking up to the tree of life, simply because it has so many philosophical prospects from which to journey? A hyena bark sounds like a "lol," and perhaps more to your liking, can do so prior to and after ripping ap...

Re: Barking up the wrong tree of life
Does nature have compassion for the cheetah cub who drinks from the crocodile infested water hole, only to be pulled into the water and savagely ripped apart while at the same time drowning a horrible death, all the while the Cubs mother also suffers the torment of looking on helplessly, unable to ...

Re: Barking up the wrong tree of life
Choice less compassion - what the f is that ? 🤦♀️ Choiceless compassion is first cousin to Un conditional Love. (Key prefix: Un , aka, first cousin to none, somewhat related to uno.) Savvy? Or, do you consider "lol" to be a fuller, more rich and faceted barking up to the tree of life, si...

Re: Barking up the wrong tree of life
In the hierarchy of Garbage Quest, “uno what to do.” :wink: No doer and no creator responsible for this garbage dump, if there was then I’m sure it would have binned the whole idea from the start. Sensibility demands this should never have happened, but it has, and that sucks. Unfortunately there i...

The tree of knowledge - a positive existence
Knowledge is a positive for the knower, at least having knowledge, one can refrain from adding more suffering to life by imposing it upon another human through procreation. In knowledge it is well known that we are being completely screwed over by life’s bounty. It’s hardly a game worth playing unle...

Re: Barking up the wrong tree of life
Existence is a Sin.
The Supreme Creator God vomited out the ultimate Sin by making sentient creatures.
Yeah, I guess for the sin worshiping religious geeks, sentient life is an endless bag of fun and laughs.
Fools.

Re: Understanding the religious mindset
non dualism isn't my "great theory". Nondualism is just one of the basics we have to understand, before continuing to work on the big questions. It's just a medium level insight, nothing extraordinary, but somehow Western culture fails to make it anyway. Nonduality is NOT a theory. It’s t...

Re: Barking up the wrong tree of life
Spiritual new and old ages, and devoted God disciples need to forget about the idea of escaping such ridiculous claims such as reincarnation and samsara. There’s no one living or dying. Nature never repeats exactly, every appearance is totally unique therefore could never exist multiple times. These...

Re: Barking up the wrong tree of life
For a human the brain is in the noggin. This is so obvious that one wonders ... huh? In language yes. Next comes the concepts in the sounds of the words. You’re talking about an artificial overlay upon the unknowable, no thing is really happening, as in a dream. In a dream, there are images of the ...

Thanks!
Just more question, if you don't mind. Is there anything that is not illusion?
