You forgot to capitalize. It's The Great Beast 666. He went by many names. Does this one have a particular importance for you or did you just want to state the obvious?convivium wrote:his name is the great beast 666.

Finally. Keep it simple, make the proper distinctions, and support your statements with evidence and verifiable citations--otherwise you'll get caught up in gossip, hearsay, slander, rumors, libel and dogmatism.polarbuddha101 wrote:But I now find this all very mundane.

Re: Magick and Buddhism
Daniel, you stopped making meaningful arguments or constructive contributions to this thread (and honestly, to a lot of Dhammawheel in general) a while ago, and have descended into a lot of petty sniping. Perhaps one would make a far better argument for the efficacy of magick thought by acting in ways that reflect spiritual development instead of arrogance and snide dismissal.danieLion wrote:Said the Parrot on manas shoulder.
Gain and loss, status and disgrace,
censure and praise, pleasure and pain:
these conditions among human beings are inconstant,
impermanent, subject to change.
Knowing this, the wise person, mindful,
ponders these changing conditions.
Desirable things don’t charm the mind,
undesirable ones bring no resistance.
His welcoming and rebelling are scattered,
gone to their end,
do not exist.

That's not a new trick. That's the same ol' LY acting like he's superior to anyone he misinterprets. SInce you seem to know so much more about Buddhadhamma and how Buddhists should act than me or those who'd prefer to develop spiritually via magick, would you have us follow you around on your high-horse shoveling it's pretentious pucks?LonesomeYogurt wrote:Daniel, you stopped making meaningful arguments or constructive contributions to this thread (and honestly, to a lot of Dhammawheel in general) a while ago, and have descended into a lot of petty sniping.

Have you read Perdurabo?
And I thought puritanism was only for Christians. Pardon me your Holier-Than-Thouness.
Have you read Perdurabo?
You seem to have a fetish for seeing your trifling, opinions in type.
Have you read Perdurabo?
"Honestly"? So now you're being honest? Does that mean you were dishonest before?
Have you read Perdurabo?
If I were dismissing you, you'd be completely ignored; and what you call "snideness" and "arrogance" I call flicking at flies.
