Hi
Re: Hi
This may be a personal opinion rather than an actual fact....plus videos of guru talk and two pretty little girls singing in another language don't equal a whole culture.
Re: Hi
Agreed. Would people please avoid posting videos here that do not relate to Theravada Buddhism? Several have been removed.

Re: Hi
I am currently studying these suttas:
https://suttacentral.net/sn31-gandhabbavagga
https://suttacentral.net/sn29-nagavagga
https://suttacentral.net/vv81/en/kiribathgoda
https://suttacentral.net/tha-ap324/en/walters
https://suttacentral.net/tha-ap50/en/walters
https://suttacentral.net/tha-ap482/en/walters
https://suttacentral.net/tha-ap500/en/walters
https://suttacentral.net/mn120/en/sujat ... ript=latin
I am at about 500 Pali words.
I find it helpful in bridging my memory palace to my dzogchen guru yoga, and also the Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva Pūrvapraṇidhāna Sūtra.
Also I think these three rebirths are the best:
'If only, when my body breaks up, after death, I would be reborn in the company of the gods of fairykind who live in fragrant roots!'
'If only, when my body breaks up, after death, I would be reborn in the company of the eggborn dragons!'
'If only, when my body breaks up, after death, I would be reborn in the company of the gods of the Thirty-Three!'

Re: Hi
You should read more suttas and realize that each rebirth is a meditation experience that can be remembered, recalled, etc. When you read more about memory and mindfulness you'll see.Ontheway wrote: ↑Tue Nov 02, 2021 2:43 pmAlso I think these three rebirths are the best:

It's all about hypnotizing Maras into Pureland and laughing and laughing and laughing.

You need to learn the rebirth by choice sutta and learn when to be a human then go mara again and again with laughter.

Then you can transform into a naga, take meru, transform into a monk and create an illusion to steal Sakka's throne and become a Bon Creator Deity.
You can maybe try reading Heart Drops of Dharmakaya and the Path of Purification....
