    With open, caring, thoughtful mind & true exertion, U have a chance at stream-entry through investigation.

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 30

    Coming to know things as they are & the process of coming to know is fundamentally best expounded by Buddha. Core , found:

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 27

    ultimate reality exists, though nothing has an intrinsic nature; knowing this & communicating well can lead us to really know more

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 27

    being fully with/on the 'object' 1 is contemplating or attending to wisely or concentrating on, THAT's the [only] NOW (present) of

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 26

    You can come to know and then remember , and cultivate it. Perhaps this is a good place for your 1st look:

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 23

    U must select what U will develop insight and wisdom ABOUT. This is personal & particular, & thus can only be broadly outlined in

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 20

    : an inspiring-to-insights (& pos. change) practical applied way of living (incl. ); as demo-ed on:

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 20

    A stream-enterer knows, s/he can clearly indicate how, & can show or demonstrate how. U can be the judge:

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 20

    Meditate, meditate: concentrate, concentrate on & on: now, now; &, oh yeah, there's insight leading to wisdom somehow here: modern

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 20

    The fact there is so little talk of stream-entry isn't a good sign. This site provides better perspective:

  • lorlarz2 ‏@lorlarz2 May 20

    No kind of good teacher believes stream-entry is unlikely; no kind of good student fails to believe he can achieve stream-entry.

    exposition, biased to social & to concentration vs insight b/c those R things 1 can speak of generally, not individually specific

    lorlarz2 Apr 27

    Idea/sense/belief that good comes from inherent good 'inside', in #Buddhism is wrong view, b/c it IS a view of *self* (opposite of non-self)

     


    lorlarz Apr 27

    Much practiced is religion (like other religions), it's so error-ridden w/ just-beliefs. & limited # of bestowed teachers no help.

  • lorlarz Apr 27

    Buddha not perfect; still much of short-track & "off-the-track" newer Tibetan based on NOTHING Buddha said/meant, like: primordial

  • lorlarz Apr 27

    from Buddha suttas!: Nothing just comes from 'inside you'; all comes from better interactions & better "seeing things as they are"

  • lorlarz Apr 27

    where U will find ALL of , totally consistent with reality & rationality, & shown consistent with :

  • lorlarz Apr 27

    "It's non-conceptual. It's non-conceptual.": Pushing this at too-early a point (often done) just pushes not thinking & THAT'S NOT

  • lorlarz Apr 26

    As 1 points out problems w/ the ways folks like to wander (failing to show wise attention), shall 1 lose more followers? Hope not.




  • lorlarz Apr 26

    ...no intrinsic nature to things, but there's nothing that has no existence - that's true , the rest false.




  • lorlarz Apr 26

    Nothing should be left unduly qualitative; U need to come to C better ("see things as they really are"), clearer, more accurately




  • lorlarz Apr 26

    Necessary faith: striving ardently, mindful, comprehending, U will have right: intention, action, & views. Thus U will accomplish imp things

  • lorlarz Apr 25

    Good: process of finding 'the real'; no one can do it for U; have an outline of the nature of the process:

  • lorlarz Apr 21

    Investigate, realize true distinctions (no wrong discriminations): come to know in context,

  • lorlarz Apr 21

    ..discovery of emptiness (realizing intrinsic emptiness) is basically an after effect (side effect) of developing wise right view.

  • lorlarz Apr 21

    must not base practice on getting at 'emptiness'; 1 determined to get at emptiness itself, that is even more wrong than view of body as self

  • lorlarz Apr 21

    Some Mahayana obsessed w/ brevity & simplicity: supposedly compacting much into too little AND losing true, useful discriminations

  • lorlarz Apr 20

    to last post add: "at all times." How? Best expression: the qualitative nature of coming to know:

  • lorlarz Apr 20

    U must sense, pursue & find an objective end to the muddle OR there will be no end to it. Even if , it's a personal effort

    1 can believe & KNOW that Buddha's Way isn't like other 'religions' (& shouldn't be); many want to make it like that, corrupting its essence

    Showing Buddhism entirely rational & reality-based & verified, a naturalistic existentialism, will help Buddhism grow http://goo.gl/XqHkNw

    I have presented Buddhist science (see: https://mynichecomp.com/index.php?subject=13 … ) , but it has yet to be "seen". Near-pure overlap of science and Buddhism.

    Buddhist science is inductive, inductive "reasoning" with only the minimal inference needed (& deductive ONLY after firm knowledge & wisdom)
