what i notice is that people have very little idea of what solitude is and actually it's easy enough to get !


my advice on taking  retreats


all that endless verbal masturbating on the zen and advaita blogs, a day by themselves and they wouldn't be so loquacious


the answer these days is to take retreat time on your own cognizance and use the web for reading and in terms of questions this  site  is available, i'm not being immodest, but in all honesty i can't recommend anyone else except toni packer who is not available !
















reply to zafu frog who has deleted all my previous comments !


why can't you cope with my replies?  buddha would have dished me up and eaten me with crayfish : o )


the truth is zazen is making you more limited and narrowing your horizons !



reply again after he deleted the above !



but isn't what you have just written thought?


you are not ignoring your own thoughts, but saying those are right and mine are wrong !


the skill is in sorting out what is true or so and what is wrong, zazen just entrenches our own thoughts, says they are right when mostly , like everything else they are wrong !


just try leaving this up for a couple of days and see how you feel about it then !


who is greater , basho or dogen ?

you are making the fundamental advaita mistake, that is speaking in terms of abatement, but not from the seeing and feeling of brahman


there is some-one there to suffer, it's just that there can be an identity in that, the point of identity is not a removal of suffering but it's synchronicity with brahman !


i think the way to understand it, is in the abatement something appears


 lisa cairns deleted my reply  so i wrote


lol, will you remove this reply/comment as well ? you may feel that what i wrote threatens your status as a teacher but in fact it only promotes you !

mysterion is a good example of the degree of brain damage that is inducted by open heart surgery, there's a definite before and after effect in his posting, much more fragmented and dissonant after and giving the style of posts he now makes


cortical deoxygenation  study


his  blog


you have to be so careful of these forums like the hardcore zen blog (and the advaita buddha at the gas pump), infested by the literally brain damaged, and what's wrong with brad warner i do not know, except a brain scan of his i saw was indicative of some serious issue


mysterion's aortic valve stenosis would have been avoidable with adequate sun on the skin and vitamin D and adequate dietary vitamin K both of which reverse calcification


careless of his health and careless of the reader's brain and time, don't be fooled by the trap these forums represent!

brad warner, you haven't had a genuine enlightenment experience ! you are not 7th patriarch approved !


10 or 28 years of zazen , what has it done for you except make you stupid, rigid and schizophrenic, christ look at fred and mysterion, bed fellows in insanity !


zen teachers are the truth and worst advertisment for zazen ever !


do yourself a favour and look to your talents like your very good visual artistic skills to make a living cause the zen thing has flopped and if your blog is not telling you that, what will?


if you are real you will reply here, but like the rest you are pretenders, burrito zen


why are you back in akron? F C S, if that's not a destructive nostalgia, what is?

i am not posting on your blog, but you are free to post  here  and unlike your blog, there is no censorship, why not be helped?
