everyday i go around looking for grim bozos to tell them that they're pure light. Until one of them called me a grim bozo. There I was fronting my light but in the end I was just a miserable bozo

Can I get one too dawei? Thanks

a ridiculous story, likely used for buddhist propaganda at the time. you should see the full version, it's even funnier

So would you say you are sure that your teacher is a true teacher? You have evaluated your teacher based on your own understanding of Tao based on your exploration and intuition, abilities to see the truth which can be subjective. If you rely on these things and knowledge aren't you your own limitation in what you can perceive, and therefore what you look for in a teacher? What I mean is how can you be so sure that what you've found and learnt is right, and that you didn't enter a side path in your understanding.And consequently find a teacher who's also on a side path, but resonated with your understanding? As you said external things including how a practice looks like means nothing. What are these real proofs and achievements? The immortal fetus? There are many experiences and achievements, visions that people have, some just created by their own mind. I think you know people like to convince themselves they've got "it" or that what they experienced is a sign their well on their way to becoming an immortal or buddha. They like to, or subconsciously look for things to confirm their thinking and ideas, and ignore things that go against it or that might cause themselves to doubt.

Hello I am munky. I used to have an account here but one day I could no longer get emails, including account validation ones after I tried changing email address. My account then got deleted automatically. Today it worked though to my surprise.
