Self-inquiry is not my thing, nor is U.G, nor do I need someone to tell me “this too will pass” from the school of the bleeding obvious.
Dreams, understandings and romantic love too will pass.Advaita points to […]

You got me, Satchit!
Here I am, squawking it out as part of my daily routine.
“You are that which you seek…you are that which you seek…” (repeat ad nauseam)Followed by three “Oshos!”, then I’m good for the […]

I’d have to agree with Sri Lokesh on that one!
“I don’t think it’s possible to be a sannyasin and respectful of authority.”
Haha, that’s a good one! Rotflmao!

“I don’t see that much similarity, other than saying “you are already that”.”
That is the whole teaching in essence, that is the whole point!
You are already that which you seek.
Seeking in the somewhere else, […] -

Not really.
What does it mean to be “fruity” in the anglosphere?
You’re either nutty as a FRUITcake or you bat for the other team (gay).How about ‘hot ‘n spicy’ or ‘highly seasoned’?
Whatever word you use, keep […] -

But seriously…
Still, even Papaji said that he found Buddhist monks were rather dry people, not LIVELY. I was just reading a criticism by Osho of Buddha, that there was a lot of renunciation in the teaching, […]

That’s part of the problem, NP, one word doesn’t cover it.
It requires a nuanced approach with some variety, as you can see from my substitutions in your post…“Still, even Papaji said that he found Buddhist […]

To use ‘juicy’ once is cringeworthy, to use this dated, overused word five times is positively shameless!
NP is unfashionably late by at least 30 years, and needs to update his Sannyas operating system and all […]

Sidney Arthur Buddha might have liked ‘Les Miserables’, but I suspect ‘The Lion King’ and ‘Mamma Mia’ would have been too feel good for him.
Chess wouldn’t have been a hardcore enough game either, but he would […]

“Life stinks”, said the Buddha. It’s not just hot air either.
This teaching really cuts through, if you’ve ever been in a crowded room full of silent meditators, after a lentil and cabbage casserole.This photo […]

Cool, Sufi-like teaching story, Samarpan.

May all beings in all the […]
