    Define God

    God is what makes mud grow fingers and play guitar. God is the eroticisation of energy. God is the enjoyer, and the weeper of tears. God is the intense need to know and be known. God is moral and ethical backbone. God is the striving, and the satisfaction, the dismay and the wrath. God is the...

    Ok Women, You Have Gotten Your Wish

    Kurdish women have been inflicting serious damage on the gutless ISIS mongrels, who run in fear from them. Strangely, those women are classified as terrorists by my govt (Australia). Who are also gutless mongrels. But the women can fight. No doubt about it.

    However it is achieved, there will be a huge reduction in human population soon. Given that the ultimate antibiotic resistant bacteria has just emerged in China, conventional weapons may not be required.

    The USA firebombed other Japanese cities prior to the atomic bombings, and the death toll from those war crimes exceeded the death toll of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Also - we can expect another Cold War now. There will be a pretext such as you have suggested. It is called ' good cop and bad...

    is not WMD invent to be used? just tell me when and where ?

    USA and Russia were allies in both world wars. The US government and establishment press were claiming that Stalin was a good guy while he was murdering 30 million people over 7 years to create the USSR. It was Walter Cronkite who revealed the truth in the Hearst press, and at the time that news...

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    So why are you saying this to people who are not seeking the miraculous ?

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    No. Not the same. Simply either problematically opposed...or not. And if ordinary mind and 'the miraculous' are the same, why do you bother differentiating them ? What can be gained ? What is the point ? Who or what could possibly benefit ? The 'non existent' ego, or Buddha ?

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    What two ? That contradicts your earlier zen quote, and is dualism.

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    No, it is only delusion then. It is always ego.

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    It is your mental process.

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    The 'traditions' are generally passed on orally, directly, to avoid the fabrications so beloved of the homebrew gurus.

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    Of course there is ego. Correctly perceived it is anatta. 'Not self'.

    Fortunately for me, I got it from the horse's mouth. And I didn't need antibiotics !

    Also referred to as 'the ordinary mind of nowness'

    Could Nothingness Be Another Dimension In And Of Itself?

    No. According to the teaching called Buddhism, there is no need to annihilate ego, were that even possible. Which it is not. Take yourself for example - how often are you in the proposed pristine egolessness ? And if someone was in such a state, how would they even register, let alone report...
