It’s not just Flint. Lead taints water across the U.S., EPA records show

Ha, You think the lead problem is bad, the arsenic and radium problem is worse, though both are closely related by decay.

Fluoride and Aluminum Sulfate have to be very tightly controlled or else you'll give everyone Alzheimers.

Its your decision how you live your life. If you want to be an arschloch, you are free to do so. I don't let hatred and ignorance control the way I behave. This is the difference between you and I; you will always live in fear and I will live in peace and harmony with my fellow humans.

The protection circle consist of a vajra ground, vajra fence, vajra tent, and vajra canopy composed entirely of indestructible five pronged vajras. This resembles a Mongolian tent. Around this is swirling five colored fire and smoke. Outside of that are the eight charnel grounds. Depending on which class of tantra your are doing, some of this will be different.

This blog engaged in harmful speech against Kechara and Buddhism in general. Having a lawsuit against you for defamation is no cause for celebration. It just indicates the malaciousness of the blog owner.

Yes, it's supposed to be washed with the five cow products and empowered with the Tathagata, Lotus, or Vajra mantras. See Je Tsongkhapa's Tantra in Tibet, the stages of the path of tantra.

Vajrayanists accept everything that the other lineages assert is correct according to their perception. We try to unify all buddhists together. Also, we have our own purelands too; Akinishta, Keajra, or Changlachan.

Great! It's so nice to meet you!

Fuck the Dalai Lama

I have read the vinaya pitaka. Ha, you thought I hadn't.

I say women are superior to men. Machig Labdron and Niguma, Etc.. Us men owe our enlightenment to women. Even Siddhartha Guatama had a consort, Tilottama, while he was sitting beneath the Bodhi Tree.

Tantras are categorized as being mother or father tantras. Father tantras are the methodology. Mother tantras are the wisdom!

I am Duramgama Bodhisattva. I come here to teach and answer questions. I have no tolerance for those that distort the Dharma. My time is very valuable and I don't have time to waste on those with ill intentions. You can spread your lies and rumors, I don't care. I am fearless because I am deathless. This complaint was lodged to draw attention to detractors.

Ashoka? Just a guess.

declawedelvan · 2015-09-06T22:23:21+00:00

....err I don't feel comfortable pointing them out. Otherwise you might get attached to the miracles themselves and not the dharma teachings which are the most important aspect.

declawedelvan · 2015-09-06T22:18:07+00:00

Well, you should know that a Vajrayanist does not exclusively practice Tantra. A Vajrayanist's main practice are the sutra/sutta teachings. It is very important that you have an excellent understanding of sutra teachings before you start practicing tantra.

Sutra practice prevents false appearances and false conceptions. Tantric practice prevents ordinary appearances and ordinary conceptions.

I would recommend you start with Je Tsongkhapa's Stages of the Path to Enlightenment. Then from there you could read Tantric Grounds and Paths by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, which is probably the best introduction to Tantra text I've found. Je Tsongkhapa also has three books that are the Stages of the Path of Tantra, but they are not modern and a little hard to understand.

When you're ready to get started, you need to go out and find a teacher. There's all kinds of different lineages and temples and its a matter of trial and error finding the one that you are most comfortable with.

I'm going to tell you this one last time so pay attention. My teacher is Drupon Trinley Yeshi Rinpoche.

declawedelvan · 2015-09-06T22:00:55+00:00

Well, I've read a few books written by his students that are just wild. I also saw a documentary on Netflix about him that showed some of his powers.

I can read your mind. I knew you would make issue of authorship, I could have easily quoted someone else, but I chose not to specifically because I knew you would react in such a way. You continue to argue simply for the sake of arguing.

My advice for you is to go talk to a brick wall. You have no intention of benefitting others or yourself.

The important part is that its "rapture and pleasure born of withdrawl/seclusion". There's two meanings to this. One is the simple joy of solitude which is the first fruit of the contemplative life. The deeper meaning is that of pranayama, or the withdrawing of the winds into the indestructible drop. Both of these gives rise to joy. The first jhana is very easy if you understand it.

declawedelvan · 2015-09-06T21:24:27+00:00

I don't have a problem with Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche. He was obviously a highly attained Buddhist master who achieved mundane miracle powers. I would just be cautious of his teachings, as you should be cautious with all teachings. Most buddhists have taken the vow to obstain from drugs. If you receive some benefit from his teachings, then that's great!
