You aren't awakened or enlightened until you can walk naked in front of super market with no fear of repercussions.
>>42425682“And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.” (Luke 8:27)
Hope a schizo take this by heart and we see him on the news lmao
>>42425943u fail to understand how profound this is anon. It's saying that anon who does this has overcome something worse than death, the fear of public and being able to forsake self, identity of self and be able to willingly destroy yourself as a person. Moment you go naked in front of that market people will record you, yell at you and even be violent towards you. But that's not worst to come , what comes after is being known as sex offender, losing your ability to blend into society as normal person with normal job you'll live on precarious ends of society that kicked you out. In jail you'll be seeked out as a cholo and be treated harshly but enlightened individual through all of this will not be phased since he understand how there's no continuous self so past is not him, future him doesn't exist and he's only present in now which is not a thing.
>>42425682If you were enlightened, you wouldn't. Why would you do it, for entertainment? to cause shock and outrage? to prove something, show off? None of those are enlightened. You're on to something in the sense that a person who would has transcended the trappings of society and reached a level of personal freedom, but it's not enlightenment >Diogenes used his public masturbation to challenge the social conventions and artificial taboos of Athenian society. When confronted or ridiculed for the act in the marketplace, he famously replied: "If only it were as easy to banish hunger by rubbing my belly.
The bodhisattva-mahāsattva thinks, "Everyone in the world has sunken into the mud of the desires. With the exception of myself, this one person, there is no one able to rescue them." Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
Based. Either you're insane or you're a serf.
>>42427530>He subtly smiles and makes a vow to himselfAhhh the Bodhisattva vow... The Bodhisattva vow kind of seems like a martyrdom suicide pact to suffer for all of eternity. My first Buddhist teacher was Vajrayana monk and when I asked him about it he said that the Bodhisattva vow is literally made in anticipation of the literal final exodus from Samsara into Nirvana at the end of time. I think his exact words were something like "after every other sentient being in the cosmos has walked through the door to Nirvana, then and only then will those of us who have taken the Bodhisattva vow exit Samsara together. Our lineage will be among the last to leave Samsara".
>>42425682>you can only be enlightened or awakened for a few seocnds before the police take you away
>>42427887>after every other sentient beingSo they were of the mind that sentient beings exist? Are not just interdependent occurrences as per anatta?That these so-called sentient beings wont just keep arising and dissolving as they have always done?It's a very Hindu take on things.Really, all of OP is Hindu, and Buddhists as always just stole it. Saints like Sukadeva, Dattatreya, and Jada Bharata did the whole walk naked through the market, completely unaware of the material plane.
>>42427892There's no you for you to be takened
>>42427887>I think his exact words were something like "after every other sentient being in the cosmos has walked through the door to Nirvana, then and only then will those of us who have taken the Bodhisattva vow exit Samsara together. Our lineage will be among the last to leave Samsara".There's no guy to exit though?
He also thinks, “Everyone in the world is blinded by the afflictions. There is only myself who now has developed completely fulfilled wisdom.” Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.

>>42425984You fail to understand being mindfull of others and the concept of consent. Noone wants to see you walking around naked. Being so self involved is not spiritual, it's being a narcasists.
>>42427910Those are exentrics. Every religion has them. Basically mental illness and poverty that fell too deep into their belief system and lost track of the real message. Anyone that thinks they are the apex of their belief system is retarded.
>>42425682Someone was saying on Dharmawheel that there is no deterioration of objects because true emptiness means no objects exist. I agree that Buddhist impermanence isn't exactly the same as Becoming in Heraclitus. But I thought of this more esoteric response. Are we saying that entropy doesn't exist? It's a scientific "Fact" that order becomes more entropic over time. But is it true that in some sense entropy doesn't exist (because it is not ordered)Cause our understanding of Becoming = EntropyDo people on that forum know what they're talking about? I've been fighting the holy spirit over who is a heretic. Ever since I tentatively submitted to him over Thicht Nacht Han I lost my Cynic Dharma and now everyone seems correct, even though 2 months ago I could clearly perceived everyone's adharma. This guy was saying nothing deteriorates because everything is unborn I guess, what is an interesting discussion, is whether Buddhist impermanence is currently a discussion of entropy
>>42429079>Those are exentrics.So the quoted person was wrong and the very essence of bodhisattva is retardation?
He additionally thinks, "Because of this conventionally designated body, I shall now succeed in acquiring the Tathāgata’s unexcelled Dharma body that completely fills up all three periods of time." Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
>>42429216Once you get a taste of liberation from dukkha, you Know you will always reclaim this in every life, and the Buddha's limitless lifespan becomes the object of gratitude. For example true devotees to samadhiraja ALWAYS become homeless. You make a face and stare
>>42429261>you Know you will always reclaim this in every life*I* will? This person? I retain some selfhood from life to life?
At this time, the bodhisattva uses his unimpeded eye to everywhere contemplate throughout the ten directions all the Brahma Heaven devas and so forth on up to all the devas of the Great Maheśvara Heaven and thinks, “All of these beings are of the opinion that they possess the power of great wisdom.” Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
At this time, the bodhisattva contemplates all beings and observes that, having planted roots of goodness in the past, they now all regress. Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
The bodhisattva contemplates and observes that, although seeds planted in the world may be but few, the fruits that are thereby reaped may be extremely abundant. Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
The bodhisattva contemplates and observes that, when beings receive the Buddha’s teachings, they become certain to realize benefits from this. Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
The bodhisattva contemplates and observes that bodhisattvas with whom he cultivated together in past lives have developed defiling attachments to other things and thus have failed to acquire the vastly meritorious qualities associated with the Buddha’s Dharma. Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
The bodhisattva contemplates and observes that the devas, humans, and others with whom he gathered together in past lives—they even now still abide on the ground of the common person where they remain unable to abandon it and have not yet even grown weary of it. Having realized this, he subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
At this time, the bodhisattva, touched by the light of all the tathāgatas, experiences doubly increased delight and happiness. He then subtly smiles and makes a vow to himself.
what is the esoteric significance of spending 2 days trying to swat a fly?
Why in the world would I do that? El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz.
t enlightenment has to do checklists
