Hi, & Welcome Aboard
This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!

Only on "Discovering Theravada". And "Open Dhamma Hot Topics"

If your intention is to have a discussion, post in one of the other areas.

[Generally members don't start theads in "Open Dhamma Hot Topics", threads are moved there if they become very contentious.]

Greetings Wesley,

Welcome to this side of the fence!

:buddha2:

Metta,
Retro. :)
If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)

'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo

there's no such thing
as a stranger.

When this is, that is.
From the arising of this comes the arising of that.
When this isn't, that isn't.
From the cessation of this comes the cessation of that.

Let moderators know if you'd like any of your topics moved out of those two forums.

Hi Wesley and welcome!
...he wondered whether there was any love between human beings that did not rest upon some sort of self-delusion.
