I would suggest reading the Madhupindika sutta, MN 18, as it describes what's called papanca, which are thoughts, much like you seem to be having, that lead to conflict.thepea wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 12:57 am
Like I said I’m 100% certain of the technique of Buddha, I know the path to nibbana.
I’m not arguing that this method is superior over mahasi sayadaw method or another method.
If they take you inside and allow you to know the truth within that’s great and that’s pure.
I also realize that one does not require an organization to continue with their journey.
I just cannot comprehend how this organization is discriminating at the moment. How they have allowed maras rules into their teachings to corrupt them.
This seems crystal clear to me and it goes against everything the Buddha teaches.
All the stories of preservation and purity and the global dhammists are allowing mara in so easily, basically zero resistance.
I would like to comprehend that there is a greater purpose over just survival of money and infrastructure.
I mean 100% no at all cost do you compromise the dhamma teachings and delivery. Especially when Mara is known to take and never give back(greed).
They basically gave the bunch of Keys to Mara.
Here's a link. I would also suggest reading the forward if you have time.
