Sadhu

Post by Ceisiwr »

I just wanted to congratulate the admins and moderators on this sight for allowing open and meaningful discussion of the Dhamma.

As many of you would have seen I sometimes post views that are contary to the classical traditional view but I have been allowed to voice these views and engage in meaningful discussion about them without fear of censorship.

This site if a great benefit to all who seek the Dhamma, it does a great service

Sadhu!

Just wanted to express my gratitude.

understanding it has the nature of a mirage,
cutting off Māra’s flower-tipped arrows,
one should go beyond the King of Death’s sight.”

Agreed! Thank you Retro and TheDhamma!

:namaste:
Liberation is the inevitable fruit of the path and is bound to blossom forth when there is steady and persistent practice. The only requirements for reaching the final goal are two: to start and to continue. If these requirements are met there is no doubt the goal will be attained. This is the Dhamma, the undeviating law.

I think it's great, too.

Rain soddens what is kept wrapped up,
But never soddens what is open;
Uncover, then, what is concealed,
Lest it be soddened by the rain.

Greetings Craig, all,

Thank you for the kind words.

It is our intention here to allow people to discuss the Dhamma freely so long as they're able to treat others respectfully and respect the intent and boundaries of certain specialised sub-fora.

Metta,
Retro. :)

Agreed!!

I have followed the discussion and will continue to, even if I continue to have nothing to add. It is helpful to me to read different viewpoints from those further along the path.

So, thanks to all parties for maintaining civility even in disagreement, and thanks to the admins for allowing open dialogue.
