Re: Drawing the Line Between Truth and Lie
Morality is a great idea until you look at the realities of those who would have you condemned for not following a sense of morality. The uppermost elites in this world sacrifice morality every single day for ideas that will ultimately benefit only themselves and their supporters. There have been p...

Re: Thou Shalt Not Disappoint Her
guest_of_logic and brokenhead,
I think both of you are correctly sensing some weaknesses in my thinking. I'll reply to your posts but I need a little more time to think about my response.
Iolaus,
What do you mean by 'unravel your love' ?

Re: Infinity – as a lack of source material underpinning reality
Ryan, From what I've gathered most modern physicists have given up hope on finding the prima materia. They are just interested in classifying and classifying all the way down as far as their instruments allow them to probe. I also still disagree with your statement that matter is mostly space; mode...

Re: Thou Shalt Not Disappoint Her
Kelly , The horror comes from comfort in things being forever lost. Enlightenment was the carrot-thing that provoked one to Void, and so one is horrified to learn that the carrot must be eventually be given up too. There is a realization that there actually never was a no-enlightenment at any time,...

turbatio , I don't think you actually wish to solve your dilemma. I suspect you are holding out because it creates meaning and the hope that when/if you decide to have sex it will be with a female who proves everything you've observed in others regarding sex wrong. You're not sure your interested i...

Re: To QSR: Is There Peace in Enlightenment?
Kissaki, I'm not at all sure I even want to be "enlightened" anymore. I'm not sure I even care. I think maybe I just want to have sex. The sooner you do it, the sooner you'll be disappointed. It's the biggest non-secret ever. The worst part about having bought into society's great constru...

Horror: The recognition that enlightenment has just a tinge what you originally desired and is composed mostly of what you never even considered and never wanted.

Re: Necessary character qualities to mature in any field
5.) The desire to make the world better and more beautiful and just for the sake of others is foolish. To serve humanity is to serve yourself. You are an extension of others, others are merely a reflection of the self, so you are serving your higher self by serving others. The sun serves humanity m...

turbatio , There is no peace and there is no rest in enlightenment. Think about it, you intuitively already know this is the case. The entire reason you ask this question is because you think there is some ultimate state where activity stops, where all the things in the world and your mind cease to...

I agree with points 1, 2, 4. I reject 3 and 5 because of the following reasons: 3.) If I do anything excellently, I do it for myself and not for others. If I do indeed remain truthful to myself then what does recognition or agreement from others matter? It matters nothing. In fact, I argue that not ...

Re: Thou Shalt Not Disappoint Her
Balance is death. Equilibrium is death. The very existence of things denotes unbalance and the lack of equilibrium. Even supposed appearances of balance and equilibrium are false. After all, what are such notions balanced against? Hah!

Why aren't you charging David with theft and unoriginality and copying Buddha? Because I do. If you think David is original in any fundamental way then you are very lost. David certainly has Buddhist influences/borrowings. That much is undeniable. The fundamental way in which David is original, how...

If you'd rather write angry rants than arguments, keep a diary. However, I'm losing confidence in your abilities: if you were capable of argument, you would be using those skills here.

Re: Thou Shalt Not Disappoint Her
I will not argue with hot air. That post was all sound and fury, signifying nothing. Void is indifferent to sound, fury, or demonstrations of great sage-hood. Kissaki, when your emotions have settled, you can give it another go. As it stands, you might as well be screaming at blue for being too sim...

Re: Thou Shalt Not Disappoint Her
If I piss on sages, vomit on their words, refuse to venerate them, and even kill them, is Void disturbed? Once recognized, Void is no longer dependent on others.

You said Void is recognizable in myriad forms, and I replied that it has no form at all. There is a huge difference between these two statements. Mine was a negation of form, whereas yours was an affirmation. And so the fuck what? Buddha is three pounds of flax seed. Void can only be recognized as ...

The entire purpose for the strict logical definitions created by The Men of Infinite is so that a reader knows exactly what they are referring to.

Re: Thou Shalt Not Disappoint Her
The Void is formless, so it is not recognizable in any form at all. There are, therefore, boundless false ways to speak of it. Enlightenment focuses on removing these delusions; trying to give the Void any form whatsoever is one such delusion. This sentence is not separate from Void yet it is recog...

Re: Thou Shalt Not Disappoint Her
