Phil Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 @Orb The odds of suffering via identifying as a thinker and projecting that belief onto perception, 100%. The odds of a gun resolving the suffering of discordant beliefs, 0%. Only dumb people experience dumb people. Apparently.

You have a Buddha for your avatar and a Jesus quote for your signature. I don't think you understand either of them. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then maybe you shouldn't use their images and words to represent yourself. One thing they both very clearly stand for is non violence.

Sometimes violence is necessary and you gotta murk a mofo. This is one of the themes of the bhagavad gita. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the riots broke out and 1000s of anti gun people were scrambling to get firearms 😄.

You're a typical westerner who has Mala beads to look cool and spiritual but doesn't understand the first thing about anything about them.

Orb Posted April 25, 2023 Author Share Posted April 25, 2023 (edited) 8 minutes ago, Jonas Long said: I know what you've shown and told me. I've essentially said that I think guns are cool (as in: the mechanics of them) and that I dont see anything wrong with getting a gun strictly for self defense. Now you are projecting stuff on me, also I don't even know what Mala beads are, and I have no interest in being spiritual. Jesus and Buddha don't represent non violence. They represent whatever you think they represent, for me they represent the Truth. And I don't think so much about what pictures I use, that's such a stressful way to live, it's like you're so anal about looking proper all the time. You gave Phil shit for using the name Nahm, you gave Mandy shit for using the Mexican stand off analogy when Mexicans don't even give a shit about that lol.

Yes, its an allegory about following your dharma, even if it means violence. The whole Bhagavad-Gita is pretty much an extensive discussion about why Arjuna is justified in being violent for self-defense. Just because you don't like violence doesn't change what the Gita is about. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
