This is called paranoia
It's not. I just see things as they are. Mara followers are usually manusa petas. Mara is really clever and he knows how to sway your imbecile hearts. And I kid you not when I say my knowledge ends in 3rd jhana. It's unfathomable to me why anyone would want to end joy.

Are you paranoid perhaps
I'm not. Are you a Buddhist or not? Have you read suttas about what Mara does? I think you're a fake Buddhist. And my organs are functioning normally. You're a charlatan impostor agent.

Re: how much is enough

I recently studied vimanavatthu, and I came across terms like vimanapeta. My conclusion was that vimanapetas are equal to catumaharajika dwellers. I also conclude that people who are born crippled or with a certain condition are actually manusa petas. The dwellers of hell are petas too. Please do no...

Re: Are some people superior or inferior to each other?

Yes, a honest person is not equal to a thief. A strong person is not equal to a weak and useless person. A smart person is not equal to a lazy person. If cars are not equal, why would people be equal? For you never know what intentions their heart conceal.

Re: Is Arahant just a concept?

I don't think so. The strongest attachment is your own family. In the 2nd jhana, curiosity is extinct. Since Brahmas at this level have perfected telepathy. Not even Mara could deceive them any longer. Thus curiosity is extinguished here.

Re: Can you work off anantarika karma?

Once the Buddha told us about the 8 cold hell. The time spent in the upper most of the cold hell, is the time it takes for a barrel of sesame seeds to get emptied given someone takes out one seed every century. The lifespan of a cold hell inhabitant directly beneath of the previous one is 20x longer...

You should read the scriptures daily
That sounds pathetic to be honest. That's not how knowledge works. Knowledge is understanding not mindless recitation.

He said… he took every kind of rebirth, except for the land of no return


He was in tusita…
Source? Only tusita? We already know that all bodhisattvas born there. Can you give me information what I haven't already known?

Re: Does breaking the five precepts lead to hell?

I knew you would not learn I want to learn. Can you please tell me what high birth Gautama had in the past prior to his final birth? I have studied parts of khuddaka nikaya, but as far as I can recall, I only remember stories about him being an elephant, lion, even born as yakha or asura. But can't...

Re: Does breaking the five precepts lead to hell?

No, you go to hell for committing heinous deeds. Some people twist the entire system around to make them look like angel saints, when they're really cowardly and evil. The govt have death row supermax prison facilities, does it mean they all go to hell? Do all kings in the past go to hell then? If y...

Re: Can we see the materiality (Rupa)?

Or is it that curiosity is extinguished in 2nd jhana?

It seems that you hold dangerous wrong view.

Re: Can we see the materiality (Rupa)?

Did you read a book or listen to a monk? The 2nd jhana is what is called post sentience :anjali: In Soviet Russia, monks listen to me :anjali: In 1st jhana, language is extinguished. Or is it more accurate to say that language is irrelevant, since you can read minds? In 2nd jhana, the mind is extin...
