Right. Weasels jump on any leads given to them. That was one of my original points.

That's what i thought. So long then.

Go to my profile and keep scrolling back my post history until you find it.

Not really. After i see a weasel, i first slap them a bit. ya know, kind of put them in their place sort of thing. After that i usually go about more ...

Ok. And i just showed it to you, and others, that you have a weaselly "I". You're welcome, adios.

That's what i just said. You don't have to stand on my shoulders. Broaden yours. "I" am not relevant. One makes a deduction based on available facts. ...

Good. The measurement of what you are saying ( a response to what i had said) is determined by the motive behind any 'amendments'. If the amendments a...

Duh?

I suppose, the above, is an original response then.

I'm not responsible for your image formations. I' ll take your word for it. You may keep walking now. If you will excuse me, there are more important ...

Donn't be silly. I'm not responsible for your reactions. You have to deal with them.

So, one is skeptical of any fuss (for or against) about Gnosis. After all it is in the un-gnosis there is any possibility. .... and perhaps then it do...

The ego seems to be out of control. The audacity of the egoists to think that their assessment of what is/what isn’t gnosis is accurate, and to think ...

Perhaps because i'm in a 'good' mood, will concede that this is a very interesting point. However, a very technical one. An investigation into which r...

Is one capable of coping with the valley of bewilderment?

Very much related :up: So the focus has now to shift from whether the self / non-self is real, to, what is the nature of suffering. Is it possible to ...

Energy is not mine or yous, its is just....well, energy.

Now, if someone asks, is there a self or a non-self that isn't conceptual or an idea? How would one find out? Naturally that would take a lot of passi...

:-) As has been said many times, the 'non-self' is a conceptual idea, created by the self, as another coping crutch. Having seen the futility of the r...

Your sand castles are all along the circumference, hence they are repeatedly being washed away by the tides of time. When the circumference is reduced...

If you rip the minute and the hour hands of the clock, what time is it right at the center?

Assuming you are talking about drinking water, water is common? You should talk to people from countries where water is severely commodified. The enti...

Down Fluffy!

Yet, if you consider the silliness of the people listening to said oracle, isn't it funny? They are listening to an outside source when you are the bo...

On the contrary. It was said , the flaws are in the very real imperfections in oneself, Language is doing what it is supposed to do. Language is a tri...

@"Jamal"@"Wayfarer" :ok:

:up: I heard it through the grapevine how the toothless "make up" imaginary meat to chew on. I suppose it is like having imaginary friends eh

But an image is still an image...It is not the thing!

An image or a symbol is quite different from a belief : it implies neither belief nor disbelief, it is of another, and certainly higher, more disinter...

Maybe some arses are liked more than others. Or perhaps they are strategically useful, and therefore pampered and encouraged, it seems. In any case wh...

Ah, some of them averaging 100's of posts, it seems. The reason i ask is because of this member , https://thephilosophyforum.com/profile/720/deletedme...

"Real people" as in not socks? That's strange, cause whenever i happen to see a notification it is usually about socks being banned. In any case, so t...

Maybe i should have pinged @"Baden"

To members of the central committee (whoever is on duty): Are all bannings announced on this horn loudspeaker (thread) ?

You cut/cherry picked one question (italicized above) and gave your answer. I recommend you address ALL questions in the context they are being asked,...

I'm asking questions, ain't I? I will recommend you do the same. Instead of forming opinions that may or or may not be correct. But more on this in a ...

So, one may say, a 'debate' about the existence or the absence of a fundamental reality is not the same as an 'inquiry' (without prejudice) into the s...

One inquires into the nature of any fundamental reality because one is passionate about finding out, not as an entertaining "engagement" with others. ...

That's right, it doesn't. I have already said: whether there is something fundamental or not, is of no consequence to us, except as e belief, a concep...

You came and disputed what i had said. I am asking you to explain your dispute. I am asking, you are speaking on these subjects because you have thoug...

These are straightforward questions. Are you having problems reading them or understanding them?

Let me ask you, you are speaking from your own understandings, right? You have understood gratitude? You speak of gratitude because you understand it ...

Mankind the biggest enemy of Humanity?

You have quoted me and your response is an emoji. I am asking what is the emoji about? Is there anything you want to say to me?

What's that emoji about?

You forgot to ping, but i had a feeling a response would come. Then there are those that ping, but can't make themselves admit if you show up. Actuall...

At the time of my post (25 days ago) I felt obligated to correct the errors as they were spreading incorrect information. It is not that one does it a...
