Ascetic

I've recently become aware of this kind of energy, almost like yin. It's very easy to sense around the dead, it's almost like this energy that is so soft and quiet that it only goes down. There are other places where it appears prevalent, in places of nature that are untouched or leylines (which I personally don't believe there are any on this world) , I also feel like this energy can be collected from trees but thats probably one of the most difficult things someone can do. I personally collect this energy from spirits, like the dead or in the astral. It's a terrible corruption though, as one has to hold onto those spirits they make use of permanently, instead of throwing them back into the void. I think it could be some unrefined sort of Qi, or perhaps a new source of energy: similar to what is generated by merely waiting. It just feels like whatever this energy is, it dies if one isn't gentle when grabbing it all the while it also dies when one is too slow for it dissipates easily like mortal qi. Surprisingly holding onto this energy makes it feel like time is distorted, or boredom/loneliness no longer feel painful.

I've just about read it all on this thread. What foolishness! Indra's net is not a pleasant phenomena. Webs and strings are meant for spiders not sentient organisms. It's all fun and games boasting about purity or the natural order. But what was the natural order really? Can your heart really survive the agony of losing Ahalya to Indra's net? I have no fun on this site anymore, I just see pictures of humans acting like boars.

The fabric does exist but its painful. Qi makes you immediately clean, it replaces function. There should never be a sense of lines or connection with Qi. Please, if any of you are going to talk about natural order, just absorb Qi correctly. I could go on and on, but I simply have no interest in berating those without curiousity. There is no value in regurgitating information, even if you tell it someone else. It's absolutely disgusting, especially when dispassion is practiced too. What is the Fabric of 10,000 things? We need to spend our whole lives making a Fabric of One thing. A Fabric of 10,000 things is rather dirty, but it's not our fault. Masters and practitioners, most of them are obsessed with beating themselves with all their discipline and practice. While the other half considers it wrong but does nothing but routinely clean things with their mind or some other particle. What do you think that is the fabric? It holds something, so its so awful when people do painful things. At this point there aren't enough Masters to undo the amount of suffering that humans experience in a moment. Even the Self is already corrupted, we need to clean ourselves just to see it. Back in the day, it was incredible luck enough to merely think of the Self once and that would be enough to be enlightened. People see stories about Spontaneous enlightenment and think it has to do with effort, no it has to do with the Old Ways, how purity used to be. The Sages back then were trying to communicate something, they weren't idle. The Dharma Age was when people could practice through suffering and become purer. They weren't hurting anyone then, but it has ended now. The Old ways of discipline and rigor might seem important but they no longer evolve our bodies. At this point if we do those things, we not only harm ourselves and damage the fabric of 10,000 things, but we also harm others. The fabric of 10,000 things is framed by this pattern, it holds the changes. It is unimaginably diverse, but getting rid of diversity is a necessity to see the Self in these ages. We can't vainly expect purity to cleanse it all lest we tear at the cloth. At some point we have to accept, that if there is a fabric, that the actions of others does do something.

It appears to be the consolidation of my understanding of the Mandate of Heaven. I seem to see Heaven in my own way. Founder sounds too grandiose. But maybe I should see myself that way.
