Walrus

Dwai and mat black have said it all.

 

All the Daoist texts I have confirm that lust is an obstacle to cultivation. Even texts about sexual practices point the difference between sexual energy and lust.

This is not nicely Buddhist only, it is nicely Daoist also.

Well, if you read it in a book it must be true then.....

Of course unless it's not....

Your life, your choices.....

You think what Dwai said is 'very nicely Buddhist' and that it is somehow different to the Dao? You're kidding right? If that's what you're saying it's like me saying the law of gravity was explained by a man from England, but I live in Australia so it doesnt apply to us here.

The truth is the truth whoever is saying it, and when Dwai said that lust and compassionate love are different he spoke a truth.

Your logic is flawed, we are not talking about laws of nature.

You are clearly a Buddhist and that's great, but please respect the difference between Daoist's and Buddhist's, I will do the same.

Lust and love are different but both human qualities,is there not a little lust in compassion and compassion in lust?

Hello, I am interested in Tao....
