And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out. It’s better to enter the Kingdom of God with only one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell...
There is always an official executioner. If you try to take his place, It is like trying to be a master carpenter and cutting wood. If you try to cut wood like a master carpenter, you will only hurt your hand.
Jesus also said “eat my flesh and drink my blood”. His disciples replied “that is a hard teaching”. Many left.
The one’s who realized he was speaking in parables (AGAIN!!!) stayed. His small little assembly of 12 disciples. Poor Jesus. May we remember he who on this day 1980 years ago burned in Hell as God’s sacrifice for man kinds sins. And let us not forget that he will rise on Monday - having paid the full ransom for the salvation of any one who believes in his name.
Like the three marks of conditioned existence, this world in itself is filthy, hostile, and crowded

Most likely something different from what ... Gotama said
Yes. The same would apply to what Narijuana said and the vast majority of what your 4715 posts attempted to gibberishly say (subject to linguistic comprehension).

My posts are beyond comparison with what Jesus, Mohammed or Gotama said. Why? Because my posts are expressions of concepts that are not apprehended but it is impossible to know whether Jesus, Mohammed or Gotama apprehended the concepts they expressed.

Was that intentional? Quite clever. A play on Nagarjuna and Marijuana.
SteRo has been smoking the Nagarjuna cabbage. Don’t worry, SteRo. Everything’s so much deeper when your high on Nagarjuna.

Funnily I've dropped Nagarjuna very soon after initially studying only a few verses of his MMK. Why? Because his approach is overly intellectual. But he always is a big topic in buddhist forums and it can be great fun to let oneself get involved in corresponding conversations. However referring to the essence of his MMK and the direct access to this essence "methods" other than studying his intellectual playfulness might be required
And in terms of drugs: concepts are the result of material neuro-transmitters as are experiences. Material drugs cause activity of material neuro-transmitters and thus experiences. With that I do not advocate the use of drugs but I am just saying that the basis of all is materiality.

materiality is a concept and dont occur in non origination of thoughts

Of course, everything expressible is mere concept. Nevertheless I opt for the concepts that I have expressed because these are in line with my conceptual framing.
What is the significance of "non origination of thoughts" for you?
