Better find a way to have a laugh with it...and ponder on our limitations as human-machines...

ChatGPT didn't provide me with a recipe for cooking dog even when I asked for a chinese recipe. It stated that cooking dog is controverdial and unethical. However when I asked for a recipe to cook grasshoppers it did, stating that, in its own words, there are delicious grasshopper recipes...

I didn't, found the text somewhere online and sorry if it is inaccurate. The point was to show that the Buddha's conception and birth isn't less strange than the one of Jesus.

Regarding the "imaculate conception" problem I think Meister Eckhart got it. "We are all meant to be mothers of God...for God is always needing to be born." I always wondered if in fact Mary wasn't the historical Jesus and the Catholic church new it all along.

I would call that logical linear Egyptian thinking.

Isn't Buddhism a strange religion ? "According to tradition, the historical Buddha lived from 563 to 483 B.C., although scholars postulate that he may have lived as much as a century later. He was born to the rulers of the Shakya clan, hence his appellation Shakyamuni, which means “sage of the Shakya clan.” The legends that grew up around him hold that both his conception and birth were miraculous. His mother, Maya, conceived him when she dreamed that a white elephant entered her right side (1976.402). She gave birth to him in a standing position while grasping a tree in a garden (1987.417.1). " And this was just the beginning of things...

Found this interesting...

I remember checking that one as well yesterday but it's not what I'm looking for. Thanks for trying to help 🙏

Thanks anyway

@Maddie There was a post on your thread yesterday about a japanese method of mind/body cultivation with a link to a book. Do you have any idea who posted it?

I find this one a fun informative documentary. Be patient because he'll only find what he's looking for in the second part of the documentary.

I've recently lost my appetite for meat because of my dog... and the bitch is a carnivore. How unexpected and ironic life is. Even so I had a laugh with your post above.

As much as we don't like what Frantzis became only hypocrites will deny the debt they have towards him. Just my assertive humble opinion.
