Re: I lied on my blood donation form today

Lmao that "wanted to help out other human beings" is such a cope, you wanted to thin out your blood that's it. Shouldn't donated your blood to TM if you wanted to help out "human beings" with your trt blood.

Re: the great vegetarian debate

Problem solved, debate is over! Technology has solved the dilemma. Nuseir's video today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-o0hS1w2Mo I still wouldn't want to eat it, as I don't like the taste of meat, but for those who do, a great solution. I do not know, it feels like an uncanny valley to me. It j...

Re: Help wanted: what do suttas say, about metta even for very evil people?

the ability to let go of the notion that i could somehow protect all those vulnerable kids (a wholesome sentiment, but unrealistic in the extreme! and of course I've always known it's impossible, I feel like you are ignoring the trees because the size of the forest has overwhelmed you. Sure, since ...

Re: Is it dhamma to not let the fool know he is being played for a fool?

In the world of attachments, you might be overlooking the role of "fear of losing out" in maintaining the system. If people choose each other for reasons, then this logic stands and is a double edged sword. It follows that they can choose someone else for reasons, and to keep them stickin...

Re: Is it dhamma to not let the fool know he is being played for a fool?

It's dhamma to not get into these situations in the first place. The 5 precepts are a preventative measure. It is not about me though? It's about seeing your friend getting played by his girlfriend who we assume is monogamous. The Buddha didn't teach how to best deal with worldly situations in orde...

Is it dhamma to not let the fool know he is being played for a fool?

I was revisiting a couple of threads and I revisited one that upsets me since I first read it, prior to joining this site. It is https://www.dhammawheel.com/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=33760 Since I don't want to zombie post, I figured I take my questions here. Now what upsets me greatly isn't the topi...

Re: A friend who’s a butcher

Doesn't he have a say on how the animal is killed? For example, if he wanted to sell halal meat wouldn't he have to order that? I understand if he can't since all of the sincere killed animals tend to be more expensive. Would a Buddhist burger restaurant be considered an oxymoron?

Re: Ajahn Pannobhasa is disrobing

I repeat -- "Evola was a fascist -- if you like Evola, you are buying into that. There's no way round it. Then it's a jolly good thing that we've got you here to warn us about him! I mean if there's one thing Dhamma Wheel's famous for it's our gigantic vanguard of Julius Evola fans. The forum ...
