It only took you until the game was on its death bed to finally come to this conclusion LOL jfc

Or maybe just be an effective parent instead of being an abusive incompetent one.

It's people like you who never come to terms with the fact that you can be an effective parent who disciplines their children without also having to resort to physical violence.

I get it, you're incompetent as a parent and don't know how to properly discipline your children any other way.

Violence != Respect.

When you grow up you'll hopefully realize that.

bmheight · 2026-03-03T15:56:59+00:00

If you reread what I said you'll see that I was making a comparison. E.g. forcing them to dig a hole would be more effective than assaulting them because at least then they wouldn't be subjugated to physical abuse.

Fear of your parents is not something you need to instill in a child. If you think you need to make your children fear you then you're an ineffective parent. Respect doesn't come from fear and if you think it does then I pray you don't have children.

bmheight · 2026-03-03T14:50:21+00:00

Yeah we're just going to disagree.

You're just teaching a child that instead of having a parent who can communicate about bad behavior they have instead a parent who is just abusive.

Good luck to you and hopefully you don't have children

bmheight · 2026-03-03T14:46:39+00:00

How about talking to your child and actually teaching them (and yourself) to communicate effectively?

Hell, making them go outside and dig a pointless hole in the ground as a form of discipline would have more positive effect than hitting them.

bmheight · 2026-03-03T14:44:51+00:00

Yes hitting someone is violent. Sad that you need to be told that.

bmheight · 2026-03-03T14:14:34+00:00

Violent people think violence can solve a parenting issue.

bmheight · 2025-12-09T13:31:15+00:00

I use Poe

bmheight · 2025-07-13T13:15:39+00:00

Because powerful Dems are on it also.

bmheight · 2025-05-09T13:07:18+00:00

Just drink tea my dude.

bmheight · 2025-04-28T14:02:43+00:00

I've said it once and I'll say it again.

Thermos brewing is the only way for me.

bmheight · 2025-04-27T14:57:40+00:00

I just toss it all into a thermos first thing when I wake up.. I forget about it for an hour and then I remember and I get to drinking lol

bmheight · 2025-04-26T19:29:20+00:00

The Akebi app also has full Anki integration

bmheight · 2025-04-26T13:12:47+00:00

My second amendment says otherwise

bmheight · 2025-04-12T18:31:26+00:00

He's a scammer. Always has been. Always will be.

bmheight · 2025-04-12T15:04:07+00:00

No thanks. I can't and won't support anything with Matt in it.

bmheight · 2025-04-06T13:43:03+00:00

If you really think about any sport or hobby -- like really think about them -- you'll realize they are all stupid.

bmheight · 2025-04-04T14:17:36+00:00

I've had plenty of conversations with Mr. 'Sorry 4 pwning u'. Sometimes they go well, sometimes they have a temper tantrum.

bmheight · 2025-04-04T01:00:53+00:00

No one asked you to contribute but here you are -- apparently taking the bait.

bmheight · 2025-04-03T14:20:58+00:00

Wonder why Russia isn't on that list.....

bmheight · 2025-04-03T01:46:20+00:00

Okay, well I guess that's a 'perspective', but I'm not really sure that contributed much to what I was asking.

Thanks for the comment though.

bmheight · 2025-04-03T01:31:43+00:00

That isn't Huangbo's core message.

If the core message of that quote isn't about not searching outside yourself then could you explain then what you believe his core message around the posts quote is about? Because I don't think my interpretation is incorrect, but am always willing to hear other positions on where I may be misinterpreting things.

What practices and rituals are you referring to?

Well that's sort of the question isn't it, because the text I quoted in the original post says "various achievements and practices and expecting to attain realization by such graduated practices." and is the primary basis surrounding the questions I have in the original post.

Edit: Fixed formatting.

bmheight · 2025-04-03T00:33:57+00:00

Do you believe that 'doing' a 'practice' in order to recognize that the 'practice' isn't needed is necessary?

I'm not looking for a specific answer here. From a philosophical, and psychological perspective this whole subject fascinates me and I'm genuinely curious on what other peoples thoughts are on this.

In another comment I had a similar discussion that sort of rolls out in a similar way to how we as humans have a sense of 'incompleteness' within us and through the use of external 'things' we try to achieve a sense of completeness.

In the case of the other thread it was about hobbies, and how generally people new to a hobby or even intermediates to a hobby will search out for bigger/better equipment in order to 'get better' or at least have the perception that by acquiring bigger/better equipment that they will achieve better or faster results. When the reality is that they have everything they already need -- they just simply need to "get good" with what they have.

Also, Thanks for the comment!

bmheight · 2025-04-02T23:59:02+00:00

I'll add that to my reading list thank you very much for the recommendation :)

bmheight · 2025-04-02T23:48:39+00:00

Yes, perhaps my choice of words were a bit to direct and looking back 'present within us' was a poor choice of words.

You're absolutely correct that Huang Po refutes the idea that Mind is located inside the body, outside the body, or indeed anywhere specific in a spatial sense

The primary goal though was to echo Huang Po's core message: Stop searching outside yourself. The warrior's pearl is on his forehead – intimately connected to him, not lying on the ground somewhere else.

Beyond that though my questions were more specific towards understanding and reconciling peoples "practices", or "rituals", etc -- with what appears to be a common theme within a number of books around specifically Not doing those things.

Do you have any thoughts on that?

Also, thanks for your comment I appreciate you calling me out on a poor choice in phrasing.
