“ For 75 years, scholars have suspected that Jesus is a copycat [Hellenized] Buddha ”



imo


this

(ed. 1/6th of the way down)


says


it


all

intellectual


property


and


easily


transferrable


and

people


are


not


very


original


basically


easier

to


copy


than

work


something

a


big


step


forward

would


be


to


say


why


you


can't


have


your


real

identity


on

you


don't


have


to

give


everything


away

indicate


why !

built

call


being


enlightened

being

a

hypocrite

“Andrew's Dad said...


Gay wad eater.


You are NOT real.


“You” are a figment of your own imagination.


You are a fictional character in a make believe world.”



look, go right back to the beginning, like you are not my father, whose being fictional ?


until you are not afraid to be yourself on this board you are just pissing in the wind?


you are just going around in circles stuck on this problem of having to fake yourself on here (ed. the hardcore zen blog)

"As for enlightenment both Gudo and Brad have stated that it's no big deal - fireworks for your zen flavored ego."


i was looking at a video of brad's talk in germany last night and was interested to see his approach about god,that is buddhism and christianity are roughly equivalent which i agree with


so enlightenment roughly equals holy


i'm not saying there are no enlightenment experiences or visions of god so to speak



but


there's


no


enlightenment


or


holiness you


could


argue


the

poet


wang


wei


was


enlightened


but


even


so


there's


a

shortfall !


it's


just


too


difficult


and


death


delivers


it


anyway

is


collection


recollection

these


are

the

processes


that


are


important


i


think


lying


down

religions


have


complex


roots


of


formation


like


christianity


was


informed


by


buddhism

to


a

surprising


extent


through


pre


C. E.


buddhist


influences


in


greece


the

middle


east


and


egypt


which


later


evolved


into


gnosticism !
















why


is


it


i


feel


dogen


and


basho


weren't


enlightened


but


wang


wei


was?
















holy


is

a


fine


idea


rather


than


reality !
















it's


like

a


lot


of


math


equations


really


you


factor


in

a

lot


of


terms


and


come


up

with


answers


and


conclusions !
















i


think


enlightenment


is


like


holy


a


nice


idea


but


it


just


doesn't


and


can't


happen

in


practice !
















i


don't


think


it's


possible


for


anybody


to


be

holy


or


enlightened


so


jesus


and


buddha


are


absolute


bloody


nonsense


and


i

guess


i


have


deregistered


all


the


christian


saints

as


well

as


all


the



buddhas


pity

about


john


of


the

cross


but


i

feel


he


comes


out


better


for


it !
















so i am saying that enlightenment is just not possible and by extension jesus and buddha never existed but hui-neng could have !

i


really


could


be

from dylan thomas's  “poem in october”


“ And over the sea wet church the size of a snail

With it's horns through mist and the castle ”


and


“ the knock of sailing boats on the net webbed wall ”


notice how visual that  poem  is and also that dogen was a very visual writer when he wasn't writing voynich !


it's the visual processing that's the straight line to infinity and why zen sitting if it locks you up facing a wall is so wrong, the absence of those remediating “ snail horns though the mist ”


funny how you can feel something to dylan thomas's writing, jumps out at you again like those snail horns


“ And I saw in the turning so clearly a child's    


Forgotten mornings when he walked with his mother


Through the parables


Of sunlight

“ a blog post back or two there were people here (ed. brad warner's hardcore zen blog) practically BEGGING Brad to ban Andrew. ”


years ago i was on a a particularly rough and violent ug krishnamurti board and a dutchman there (who hated ug krishnamurti, i think he was a jk fan) couldn't stand me, but since ug himself was such a rough diamond they couldn't in all conscience kick me off, but the dutchman had lent money to the message board owner so he put the “hard word on”, the owner actually closed the board rather than betray his principles which was fair enough i suppose !

i've had a bit of a think about anonymous posters, there's no reason not to have a web identity unless you are trying to hide something


in real life you avoid people of this character as just plain trouble so i think that's also a good strategy on this message board


i wouldn't be replying to anyone without a nick and even then i reserve my right ! slow but steady wins the race
















“ if you respond, could you cut out the personal abuse parts.”

much

you anonymous posers can claim any thing in the bullshit you write but people who deliberately hide things intend to deceive so you are known already i am afraid

what good is zen if you don't see anything of life and just have a bunch of politically correct attitudes to feel your way with ?


a pathetic overconfidence that leads to cringing cause they are so used to real life disasters when they veer tinily into different worlds


anonymous posting is cringing and do i have to tell you why?

“ i think the problem that lesbians have    


is that sex is so accessible


they spend their lives in a frenzy of lust


  and there's a stupidity that follows from that ”


“ what did you mean by that? It sounds like you are saying lesbians are stupid. ”


what i said was that there a stupidity that comes from that which is VERY different from saying lesbians are stupid !


sex and lust are blinding or don't we know !


cause there's no drag of reproduction or male sexual fatigue they don't have any brakes !

“Andrew: If you were really original you would use one word per post. Think of it. Your name on every word. 30 posts to make one sentence. Even Dogen didn't have the balls for that..”


but i am really original, my  poetry and homilies  and  health writings  are unique!


i don't have to chase anything


there'd be half a million words, most written by me on my web site, do you know how many 1/2 a million is,

Really?


This is right up there with Brad's "foodstuffs".

“'could think of it like zazen, just allow thoughts to come and go, without trying to push them away.'

now


that's


good


it's voynich-ese


so


much


of


zen


is


like


that


you


project


the


asssumption


of


sense


onto


nonsense !


compare


with


“ the


hunting


of

the


snark ”


which


is


sense


clothed


in


nonsense !

“ horizontals


are


for


squares


and


voynich


voyeurs ”



show me some zen writing that was not originally vertical, i don't mean modern western trash!


i write alot of   poetry  and sorta homilies/philosophy, that's where it comes from and there are a few writers who write like this, but your idea of english is limited to what the “school marms” have taught you so you think of english as being a certain way !


you lot still think shakespeare wrote shakepeare and not sir henry neville and take the opinions of the mass as right !


just

bumpkins really


but zen has always been literarily sophisticated


the

real


zen


that


is


cling


to


your


ignorance


it's


only


going


to


keep


you


that


way !


you


think


you


can


do


zen


by


“ just


sitting ”


and


not


reading


the

huge


range


of


material


available


like


this

well


it


doesn't


work !


you


can


scream


all


you


like


it


works


but


it


still

doesn't


just


compare


jundo

with


pierre  tesuten


dogen


was


basically

a

writer


you


need


to

write


too


it


takes


writing


AND


solitude


“ just


sitting ”


doesn't


work


and


never


has


and


if


you


read


the


ch'an


patriarchs


they


warn


against


the



“ ghost


cave ”


of


sitting
















i


think


why


you


don't


like


the


vertical


writing


is


you


have


to


stop


and


think


cause


each


word


is


weighed


and


clear


and

what

you


really


want


to


do


is


just


skim


over


it


and


not

take


it


in


like


you


have


been


doing


all


you


life


with


anything


of


sense !


can


i


tell


you


again


dogen


and


all


the


chinese


and


japanese


patriarchs

wrote


vertically


another


inconvenient


fact
















“ andrew,


would you mind writing in horizontal sentences like everyone else? i'm asking you to please do so. thanks. ”


hi  “ fake diana white ”


(ed. nick of the quoted author)


i'm


real


and


not


like


everyone


else


so


what


do


you


expect ?/!
















“ So anyway, that Jundo really seems unstable and egotistical. ”


it


takes


one


to


know


one


the


answer


is


not


in


denying



this


in


ourselves


but


seeing


it


and


slow


changes


come


from


that !
















“ so you are saying that talking about zen is voyniching, and the words create the same conditions that zen is attempting to see through? ”


now this is your problem, you are not being careful enough, just rushing in and taking what you think was said


my


words


were


“ bad


voynich


translations ”


and


i


actually


retranslated


that

dogen


quote


i'm


not


going


to


carry

you


it's


all


the


same


you

want


something


for


free


without


doing


any



work


well


if


you


don't


do

the


work


you


won't


get


anywhere


will


you


btw


this work is


at


least


until


age


related

dementia


hits !


a

lifetime


process !
















what


i


am


saying


basically


is


zen


is


the


same


problem


as


it


is


trying


to


solve !


and actually that's what dogen says and all that happens is everyone quotes dogen in bad voynich translations thinking they are doing something meaningful !


all zen and religion from giant ichthyosaur eating  octopuses  in the distant past to space going robots in the very distant future will be doing this!


the


question


is


do


you


have


to


do


this?
















  “Why did the blind normal cross the road?”


cause


it


wasn't


there ;o)
















zen


is


just


another


tower


of


estrangement


or


is


it ?
















i


think


being


mocked


is


like


getting


a


foot


in


the


door


being


denied


you


never


do !
















“ those who greatly realize delusion are buddhas. those who are greatly deluded about realization are ordinary beings ”


   the above is a bit of a crappy translation of dogen, my rectification is below !



to


be



a

buddha


is


to


understand


yourself

as



a process


of


mistakes


to


not


understand


yourself

as


a


process

of

mistakes


is


just


the


usual


ordinary


human !

















the


absurdity


of


writing


voluminous


pages


that


no-


body


reads !
