Thanks for your opinion
np
if you ever need another just hmu
Just pointing out that not accomplishing Nirvana because you "don't want to" is different than "I want to sacrifice and help others"
Just pointing out that you are misquoting twice
@Akail Good champion, not balanced tho
i don't think bodhisattva has convinced anyone he is a bodhisattva
so it's pointless to argue over
Oh sorry, "it's too boring over there" is worse you're right
Well, I'm not into that Eastern religious stuff anyways, so convincing me would be futile, but sounds interesting I guess
@AstralSentient christian? gnostic?
Christian
non-denom?
And that means?
Are you non-denominational
Oh
No
It would probably be easier to ask what denomination
Yeah, lol
Also what denomination?
It has been fun guy's I think I'm popping back over to nirvana for some peace and quite
Nice! I used to go out with a Scandinavian girl who was Lutheran
peace out!
lmao ttyl
Sure mate 👌
My ancestry extends back to around that location, Norway mostly
Ah, she was from Sweden but lived in Ã…land
How does "popping back over to Nirvana" work? What does that mean?
I think he's just pretending enlightenment, Nirvana is technically supposed to be a mental state, and in the actual teachings of Buddha is more a philosophical thing than a religious thing
So in a physical sense, they are meditating?
And in his denomination you're supposed to stay fully dead and never reincarnate when Nirvana is reached, instead of reincarnation
If you reach nibbana, you don't leave afterward
The cycle of reincarnation ceases
And yeah, Buddha essentially tried many walks of life and tried to discover the "right" way to live
It's not a place and it's not something you pop in and out of
The way they worded it was a bit strange to me
Yeah basically it should be like saying you'll pop into heaven and back
Made me think of switching between realities
Now that I think of it, my username, which I had even when i first joined Discord, sounds quite like something related this form of spirituality stuff.
Astral as in astral projecting and sentient as in sentience, even tho that wasn't the intended meaning.
