Hi Noone, I did not know this. Buber was a fascinating man. Thanks for posting.

This is certainly a factor in some of the material that I have read. Thanks for the info about forms, This is a new one for me but a very interesting point of view.

I have found this subject very challenging. By chance today I came across Analayo's book 'Rebirth in Early Buddhism'. I will read this and hopefully have a greater perspective. It has some good reviews. Has anybody else read this book?

Jesus said, "Many are standing at the door, but it is the solitary who will enter the bridal chamber." Gospel of Thomas

I frequently read that Buddhism does not accept the idea of a soul. Usually this is explained as an unchanging soul or unchanging eternal essence. The emphasis seems to be on 'unchanging'. Does this mean that a changing essence might be more acceptable.

Another by Burne Jones, 'Love Among the Ruins'.

@dawei Many thanks for these paintings. Incredibly powerful stuff.

Hmmm Well b/ is wrong for a start. You have no idea what they are thinking. It might be a lust fuelled desire to pounce on you. Nothing says you have to make the first move. Secondly I have to ask what are you really grasping for, girls or the balls to talk to them?
