As long as it would not go against what the people regard as own, theirs, low speech isn't censured here, as well as improper behaviour, when it serves defilements, isn't rebuked.Radix wrote: ↑Fri Dec 16, 2022 7:09 pmIt's not against the current TOS.santa100 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 16, 2022 12:28 amWell, that's why I asked if you're a monk, so I can get some tips on exactly how "it's possible to go for the highest, possible to take on the holy life".

Wise ignor it (walk away, don't nourish it, and sometimes point it out, the confusion), good householder, and go therefore from the houselife into that of homelessness. Yet once the Noble domain is occupied by homies, those left just clothes (sometimes not even that) behind, it's no more worth or useable at large. Only some will be able to do the way merely without any social-net, simply alone. That requires one at least the third path.Radix wrote: ↑Fri Dec 16, 2022 7:26 pmBut these people are happy, content, they live in welfare and happiness.

It's of no use at all, as everyone can trace in modern/western dhamma-food-sharing communities, to just plunder and eat off, for those just grow really antisocial, althought they try to appear different. That goes that far that they are even no more capable to show face, name and know their stand in certain relations.

When A Lama leaves their throne and... Everyone else has something to go on.
The six senses accommodate; All the factors of existence... The All.
Apart from; The All... Nothing exists.
The senses are empty of a self & what belongs to a self.
