In fact my agression is one of my... downfalls

2018-06-17 05:33:15 UTC  

i get nasty and scare others...

2018-06-17 05:33:20 UTC  

The point of Buddhism is to actively seek quietness and stillness, within Theravada.

2018-06-17 05:34:10 UTC  

In Vajrayana Buddhism they do this but do it to prepare for further enlightenment by the writings of Buddha handed down to them.

2018-06-17 05:34:32 UTC  

You are Orthodox, right? @Rex Colt

2018-06-17 05:34:32 UTC  

lol I got an odd belief

2018-06-17 05:34:37 UTC  

I dont know

2018-06-17 05:34:39 UTC  

Hmm

2018-06-17 05:34:46 UTC  

i kinda go my own way

2018-06-17 05:34:48 UTC  

Well, you might be interested in a book called the Philokalia.

2018-06-17 05:34:55 UTC  

I also support "burial via feeding corpses to animals"

2018-06-17 05:35:04 UTC  

whcih bugs some people

2018-06-17 05:35:09 UTC  

It is full of stuff from the Eastern theologians and may help with spiritual life

2018-06-17 05:35:11 UTC  

Like sky burial and shit

2018-06-17 05:35:19 UTC  

That's cool.

2018-06-17 05:35:22 UTC  

i just think it's better

2018-06-17 05:35:34 UTC  

I mean if you're in the ground you end up becoming food for maggots and mold

2018-06-17 05:35:36 UTC  

When you're dead, you probably won't care all too much.

2018-06-17 05:35:39 UTC  

yeah

2018-06-17 05:35:56 UTC  

I'd rather something like birds or hyenas or wolves or something eat my corpse

2018-06-17 05:36:09 UTC  

at least it'd be going to the cute fuzzy animals

2018-06-17 05:36:18 UTC  

No you wouldn't, because you would not be conscious of the life you had lived.

2018-06-17 05:36:30 UTC  

Nah I got this odd idea

2018-06-17 05:36:33 UTC  

In fact, there may be no **YOU** at all

2018-06-17 05:36:36 UTC  

where I think your "awareness"

2018-06-17 05:36:45 UTC  

is trappd in a single cosmic string or quirk

2018-06-17 05:36:54 UTC  

and if you're burried in a coffin or cremated

2018-06-17 05:36:58 UTC  

it prevents you from... being reborn

2018-06-17 05:37:08 UTC  

it's weird

2018-06-17 05:37:17 UTC  

I mean maybe it has some metaphysical effect but I don't see it. What makes you think this?

2018-06-17 05:37:30 UTC  

The fact I felt myself become a single "string" when meditating

2018-06-17 05:38:48 UTC  

Hmm... and you think it is good practice to interpret the emanations of the mind?

2018-06-17 05:39:00 UTC  

I have no idea

2018-06-17 05:39:06 UTC  

people might get mad

2018-06-17 05:39:12 UTC  

feeding dead bodies to wild animals

2018-06-17 05:39:21 UTC  

That is their issue.

2018-06-17 05:39:23 UTC  

I just read a snake actually ate a woman

2018-06-17 05:39:35 UTC  

Eh, some people are into that.

2018-06-17 05:39:35 UTC  

on the news

2018-06-17 05:39:38 UTC  

lol

2018-06-17 05:39:46 UTC  

I know a guy
