Re: Should people be exhorted/persuaded to practice the Dhamma at all?
Yuck! I don't care for people that proselytize their religion, beliefs, dogma, etc. with a "shotgun" approach. Eventually, it'll come out if people are sincere, so there's no need to bother with divulging information about what I practice. We can show people the Dhamma without having to pu...

People of Earth (and beings from other realms who visit DW), I see the great conspiracy unwinding. Flat Earthers have been found out. See, conspiracy movements are typically fringe and receive much public criticism. Lizard aliens, the Illuminati, and the new world order are some common ones. Current...

Re: Ajahn Brahm and the strange bottles of Pepsi!
