The maximal or purest concentration that a mind can achieve may be an objective state that is the same for everyone and it is a state that ordinary beings trapped in constant thinking have no inkling how wonderfully woe free it is.
However noble or exalted one’s thoughts are, to be detained in constant thinking is a handicap or a stricture that seriously limits the concentration and equanimity that thinking mind can access.
The ability to stop thinking at will is a prerequisite to further higher concentration and equanimity of the mind.
Even though it is unthinkable for ordinary people to exist without thinking it may be or is a state that is possible and a far more satisfactory state of existence than constant thought, however noble those thoughts.
Thus you must learn to stop thinking by practicing to slow down the pace of your thinking, reduce and eliminate addition of unnecessary force to your thoughts by stopping the stretching, changing speed and loudness of your thoughts and paying attention to keep telling yourself to stop thinking to briefly interrupt the flow of thought when you find your thoughts are distressing and serves no purpose. Just keep telling yourself “stop thinking, stop thinking, stop thinking” and this will briefly arrest the useless even unwholesome thoughts that if maintained will finally bring about a conscious cessation of thinking.
THERE CANNOT BE ANY NECESSITY TO BE CONSTANTLY THINKING AND IT REFLECTS THAT THINKING IS LARGELY UNNECESSARY THAT IT IS CONSTANT. IF YOU ARE CONSTANTLY THINKING UNNECESSARILY YOU ARE PRACTICING CONTROLLED MADNESS THAT WILL DEGENERATE INTO UNCONTROLLED MADNESS. THUS IT IS THE PERSON WHO IS CONSTANTLY THINKING WHO IS IN DANGER AND PRACTICING SOMETHING CRAZY (ALL ORDINARY PEOPLE MUST EXPERIENCE OCCASIONS WHEN THEY FIND IT MADDENING THEY CANNOT STOP THINKING AND THESE ARE HARBINGERS OF FUTURE MAD THINKING IF NOT REDRESSED NOW), NOT THE PERSON WHO CAN SWITCH OFF THINKING AT WILL TO EXIST JUST SEEING WITH OR WITHOUT DOING.
It is not the person who is not enchanted with thinking (like intellectuals are) and can stop thinking at will who is in danger of going mad but it is the person who cannot stop thinking at any time and is enchanted with thinking, thinks much about thinking, who is at risk.
It is a reflection that they are not masters of their thinking but they are slaves of their (force driven not reason driven) thinking that is actually dictating to them that people cannot stop thinking. A true master of his thinking can order his thinking to stop at will.
You do not need to think to steer or change gear or brake or open the door or unlock a lock, all you need to do is mindfully see the situation and hand and mindfully do it and what thinking people do whilst driving or doing daily chores are usually unrelated to the activities at hand and even serve to distract them such that they get involve in 'accidents' which are not accidents but the result of their absent minds lost in thought.
Whence come evil thoughts when you can switch off thinking when it is unnecessary? It is only people who cannot switch off their thinking, who cannot help what they are thinking, who are led on by their thoughts that will entertain evil thoughts that lead them further and further astray.
If you think it is impossible for a being to exist without thinking, you think constant thinking is the natural condition of existence when it is an abnormal though ubiquitous condition here, then you have wrong view or are deluded and headed for the destination of wrong view: hell or the animal womb.
Why No Thinking Is Higher Than Thinking:
Do you work out something you did not know or see with reason or do you work it out with emotion or force or like and dislike? Force, emotion, like or dislike can never work out anything but only calm force free reason can work out what a situation means. Therefore one must not confuse reason with emotion (derived from like and dislike) like one must not confuse chalk (inedible) with cheese (edible).
It can be worked out logically that all, even noble thinking affects or mars that thinking person’s concentration and equanimity and therefore if it is possible to exist consciously without thinking it will be a superior state of existence for that mind.
All thinking applies force on the mind.
Only thinking that has no prolonging of syllables, that is steady in speed and strength of force can be noble and this thinking exerts steady minimal force on that mind that nevertheless inevitably still weigh on that person’s concentration and whatever mind that is not fully liberated from force cannot be perfectly concentrated and equanimous (neither liking nor disliking) because it has a measure of disquiet from the presence of force.
Ignoble thinking can only be thinking with prolonging of the application of force (stretching of syllables), constant changes of speed and strength of force that is for show to impress the person himself and this is even more detrimental or harmful to the access to concentration and equanimity than noble thinking with no prolonging, not changing speed or loudness.
Thus the person who has perfected noble thinking filled with genuine goodwill that has no prolonging of syllables, changes of speed and loudness is rewarded with one eon in heaven whilst the person who is able to stop thinking at will is rewarded with two eons in heaven.
Once the person’s concentration is liberated from the significant constraints of constant thought, it can develop much further to achieve partial or pure concentration that gives rise to pure equanimity and these are still higher states that accord the being four or 500 eons in bliss away from return to the lower realms.
THERE IS SUCH A THING AS TOTAL OR PURE OR ACHIEVABLE CONCENTRATION EVEN IF YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT IS LIKE. WHAT IMPAIRS A PERSON’S CONCENTRATION IS THE FORCE RESIDENT IN IT AND FORCE CHANGES IMPACTING ON IT. THINKING IS AN ACTIVITY OF THE MIND AND ALL ACTIVITES APPLY FORCE ON THE MIND TO THE DETRIMENT OF ITS CONCENTRATION AND THENCE EQUANIMITY.
WHEN YOU THINK YOU MUST EXERT FORCE THAT IS NOT PROLONGING, NOT CHANGING IN SPEED AND STRENGTH IN NOBLE GOODWILL THINKING AND CONSTANTLY PROLONGING, CHANGING IN SPEED AND STRENGTH IN ILL WILLED THINKING.
A MIND THAT HAS FORCE RESIDENT IN IT AS OCCURS WITH THINKING CANNOT BE FULLY CONCENTRATED BECAUSE FORCE WARPS IT AND A MIND THAT IS NOT FULLY CONCENTRATED SUFFERS AND CANNOT BE FULLY EQUANIMOUS.
Further it can be worked with reason (not emotion) that it is an illusion not true as it actually is that thinking is inevitable or compulsory or the lot of existing. The apparently compulsory nature of thinking is because the excessive force that often reach even violent levels in the emotional thinking of all ordinary people here creates a self perpetuating relentless momentum to keep thinking until the person fall exhausted in sleep.
Constant force driven thinking can be compared to a nuclear chain reaction that is self sustaining once a critical mass is reached and there is always a danger of an explosion unless it is modulated by inserting or withdrawing boron rods that remove excessive neutrons created. Once a self sustaining fission is created, it is hard to stop the nuclear fire that foolish people are reluctant to extinguish even though they are tormented and they do not realize they are headed for a nuclear meltdown or explosion.
You cannot stop a freight train traveling at 100 mph by mere wishing but in order to bring it to a stop you must first do work to progressively reduce its speed. If you don’t one day the train will crash.
By painstakingly working to reduce the force driving the thinking by paying attention to stop the prolonging of syllables, changing speed and loudness, you reduce the momentum of the thoughts to self perpetuate and if this is sustained, a time will come when it is possible to stop thinking when there is nothing necessary to think about.
Far from dumb or meaningless, it is those who are slaves of constant emotional thoughts that are dumb and engaging in something that is meaningless because constant thought cannot be meaningful.
Constantly Unnecessarily Using Force, Wasting Time & Energy:
Anyone who stretches his syllables, changes speed and loudness is constantly (unnecessarily) using force, constantly wasting time and energy because prolonging, changing speed and strength of force (loudness) is never intermittent but constant and only the extent varies and across board in all activities he undertakes namely perceiving, thinking, speaking and doing.
Because you need to use force to prolong or stretch, change speed and strength of force, if there is constant stretching, changing speed and strength of force in whatever activity you undertake, you must be constantly unnecessarily using force whereas the person who does not prolong, change speed and strength of force is not constantly unnecessarily using force.
Because you need time to prolong or stretch, change speed and strength of force, if there is constant stretching, changing speed and strength of force in whatever activity you undertake, you must be constantly wasting time that is obviated in the person who does not prolong, change speed and strength of force.
THUS ANYONE WHO CAN BE OBJECTIVELY DEMONSTRATED TO HAVE STRETCHING OF SYLLABLES, CHANGES IN SPEED AND LOUDNESS IN HIS SPEECH IS GUILTY OF:
CONSTANTLY WASTING HIS AND OTHERS’ TIME & ENERGY BY PROLONGING HIS SYLLABLES, CHANGING SPEED AND LOUDNESS.
CONSTANTLY UNNECESSARILY USING FORCE, PROLONGING THE USE OF FORCE THAT CREATES INSOLUBLE STRESS, RESTLESSNESS AND DISTRACTION FOR HIMSELF AND ALL WHO INTERACT WITH HIM.
WHATEVER ACTS OR WORDS OF GOOD HE MAY UNDERTAKE IS OVERWHELMED BY THE CONSTANT HARM HE IS DOING TO HIMSELF AND OTHERS THROUGH THE CONSTANT WASTE OF TIME AND ENERGY, CONSTANT CREATING OF STRESS, RESTLESSNESS AND DISTRACTION FOR HIMSELF AND OTHERS. HE IS A HYPOCRITE.
THUS THERE IS NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN PAYING ATTENTION TO STOP STRETCHING SYLLABLES, CHANGING SPEED AND LOUDNESS.
Joking Is All About Appreciating Falsity:
Joking is all about appreciating falsity or laughing at falsity and if you think that is not the case you may have wrong view that leads to hell or the animal womb.
The reason why what Bush said below is funny is because you unconsciously know it is not true, he is not really dressing himself down, he does not mean what he says below:
Bush: "A year ago my approval rating was in the 30s, my nominee for the Supreme Court had just withdrawn, and my vice-president had shot someone (his hunting partner).
"Ah, those were the good ol' days," he said, to applause from the audience. (it cannot be true that he pines for those days and he is only saying it to pretend to poke fun at himself to please the press present)
You see nothing with appreciating falsity, think it is harmless and letting down the hair for a while but when you laugh, you agitate your mind that leads to greater turbulence and the urge to agitate the mind that you do not realize will end in loss of control and not heaven but hell.
When the headline reads “Heard the one about the president giving a comedy speech it is targeted at the reader’s emotion more than reason. It appears he is taking a personal interest in you but he is trying to attract you or make you like to read his article.
IF YOU THINK YOU CAN ENJOY APPRECIATING FALSITY AND NEVERTHELESS GO IN THE DIRECTION OF TRUTH YOU MAY BE WISE OR A GREAT FOOL.
Thinking Restricts The Mind:
Because consciousness can attend to one thing at a time only or it has to rapidly switch between different things demanding attention, the act of thinking restricts or ties down that person’s consciousness that would not be the case in one who is not thinking.
Thus if one’s thinking is not serving any purpose, merely mindless repetitively talking to oneself, even arguing, trying to be funny, justifying one’s anger or sadness, then it restricts one’s concentration rather than releasing it.
THUS THINKING HANDICAPS THE PERSON’S CONCENTRATION IN TWO WAYS: THROUGH THE INHERENT STRESS OF THE FORCE THAT IS PRESENT IN MINIMAL AND CONSTANT STRENGTH EVEN IN NOBLE THINKING AND THE INHERENT DETENTION OR OCCUPATION BY THINKING OF THE PERSON’S CONCENTRATION THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE FREE.
Why Constant Thinking Must Be Restless:
Because the mind cannot attend to more than one thing at a time, it must rapidly switch attention to (appear to) attend to several things at a time.
Thus if you are constantly thinking, you must constantly switch attention between what you are thinking, what you are doing or saying and what is happening around you and because this unnecessary because it is not necessary to think all the time you are practicing controlled restlessness that will end in mad restlessness.
Again force must be used to switch attention back and forth and that too is unnecessary application of force on the mind to create stress.
THUS CONSTANT THINKING WHICH CANNOT BE NECESSARY IS EVIL IN THREE WAYS, IT APPLIES CONSTANT FORCE ON THE MIND (EVEN IF IT IS AT CONSTANT MINIMAL STRENGTH & SPEED), IT OCCUPIES THE MIND UNNECESSARILY SO THAT ITS ATTENTION CANNOT BE FOCUSSED ELSEWHERE AND IT FORCES THE MIND TO PRACTICE CONTROLLED RESTLESSNESS BECAUSE IT MUST RAPIDLY SWITCH ATTENTION TO OTHER THINGS THAT DEMAND ATTENTION THAT CONSTANT THINKING PREVENTS FULL ATTENTION.
It is emotion not reason that is people’s receptionist & mistress:
Many may like to think that whilst they can be emotional at times, they are capable of reasoning and being objective but they may be deceiving themselves.
Quote headline: Pope moves closer to sainthood.
Comment: If you are a fan of Pope John Paul, you will like or be attracted (by force) to the headline that has nothing to do with reason and you may feel emotionally justified not justified by reason why he deserves to be a saint.
If you are not a fan you are likely to be switched off, mentally muttering to the effect ‘who cares’ (which is a reflection of dislike) or you may even scoff at the pope. Here again it is emotion not reason that is the basis of the indifference or scoffing.
Old age is an excuse (not the true reason) and it is not old age per se that is responsible for the visibly labored and pained expression of the pope’s face and body.
I say a true saint, no matter how old, is always equanimous or passively detached (neither liking nor disliking, neither pained nor laughing) even if his body is racked by pain. Whatever the circumstances he is calm, clearly thinking and unshaken and therefore it follows from what I said that the pope does not look like a saint. (Let God decide who is and is not a saint).
This is likely to stir the ire (arouse immediate and even intense dislike) if you are a fan of the pope but how do you know I am not correct? By what reason and so rapidly (immediately) you are upset by what I say?
They might justify their opposition to what I say variously like “How do I know I am right?”, “You should show more respect to authority”, “Careful God will punish you”, “I am nasty or wicked to say that”.
These may appear to be reasons but they are not true reasons but excuses to put me down and even intimidate me to be afraid of saying what I say.
What I said is not based on emotion because I know I am not emotional as I say it and I have given an explanation why I said so: Whatever the circumstances he is calm, clearly thinking and unshaken or distressed and therefore it follows from what I said that the pope does not look like a saint.
Here as elsewhere, those who are undiscerning might think it is reason that is their receptionist but it is emotion, their likes and dislikes that is their receptionist or mistress whispering into their ears what to like and dislike.
JUST BECAUSE I SAID WHAT I SAID ABOVE DOES NOT MEAN I AM HOSTILE TO THE POPE, I AM DENIGRATING HIM AND IF YOU THINK THAT BECAUSE I SAID THAT, I AM ATTACKING HIM, YOU HAVE FALSE PERCEPTION THAT WILL END IN MAD PERCEPTION. ON WHAT GROUNDS DO YOU SAY I AM ATTACKING HIM EXCEPT THAT YOU ARE EMOTIONAL, FEEL ATTACKED BY ME?
WHAT IS REASONING?
TRUE REASON IS BASICALLY UNEMOTIONALLY ARRIVING AT A CONCLUSION OF SOMETHING YOU DID NOT SEE OR KNOW BASED ON FACTS OF THE CASE AND KNOWING WHAT CAN AND CANNOT HAPPEN IN THE CASE.
AS SOON AS EMOTIONS ENTER THE PICTURE, AS SOON AS YOU ARE SEIZED BY LIKE AND DISLIKE REGARDING THE SITUATION AT HAND, AND THE MORE STRONGER YOUR LIKE AND DISLIKE THAT IS AROUSED, YOU LOSE YOUR SENSE OF OBJECTIVITY AND BECOME A POOR DETERMINATOR OF WHAT COULD AND COULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED BECAUSE YOU PREFER TO BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR LIKE AND DISLIKE NOT AS IT REALLY DID HAPPEN.
IT IS AN ILLUSION THAT REASON IS THE BASIS OF PEOPLE’S DECISIONS OR WHAT THEY PERCEIVE AND THE TRUE BASIS IS THEIR MENTAL FORCE ACTING EITHER DIRECTLY OR NAKEDLY OR INDIRECTLY AS THEIR LIKES OR DISLIKES OR THEIR DERIVATIVES THE EMOTIONS LIKE PRIDE, SHAME, GREED, LUST, ENVY, JEALOUSY, ANGER.
THUS THERE IS NOTHING MYSERIOUS OR WONDROUS OR INDEFINABLE ABOUT REASONING OR LOGIC AND IF YOU THINK SO YOU HAVE WRONG VIEW OR FALSE PERCEPTION (THAT WILL END IN MAD PERCEPTION). REASONING OR LOGIC IS SIMPLY UNEMOTIONALLY, UNFORCEFULLY ARRIVING AT THE CONCLUSION OF WHAT HAPPENED OR WHAT POSSIBILITIES COULD HAVE HAPPENED BASED ON KNOWING OR SEEING WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED IN THE PAST. IF YOU SAW WHAT HAPPENED, OR YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED (SOMEONE TOLD YOU) THEN THERE IS NO REASON TO RESORT TO REASONING)
REASONING IS ATTENTIVE DATA COLLECTING & PIECING TOGETHER:
The requisites of true (as opposed to faked) reasoning is mindful or attentive patient collecting of all information that may be relevant and the attentive or mindful piecing together of these bits of information to get a picture of what they tell. If you are hasty and you need force to be hasty, you will jump to conclusions based on inadequate or haphazard gathering of information.
Therefore if your concentration is scattered (diffuse) or divided you lack the concentration that is necessary to gather all the data that may be relevant and understand what they mean. If your concentration is scattered you may have the pieces of information at hand but not understand what they mean or their implications are lost to you or your scattered seeing but not seeing mind. And a person’s mind is only scattered or divided forcibly or force is need to scatter or divide a mind’s concentration. Therefore mental force is inimical to the concentration of the mind which is a requisite to gathering well data that may be relevant and understanding well what each piece of data mean and what they all mean when added together.
In order for you to arrive by true reason what a situation means you must allow sufficient time and perceptive unemotional searching for information that may be helpful at arriving at the truth. It is not possible for you or anyone to instantly arrive at a conclusion that I am wrong and nastily attacking the pope and Christianity based on what I said but instead it is based on your dislike for what I said that you perceived is attacking the pope and you bolstered your conclusion with hastily assembled ‘reasons’ why you came to the conclusion not realizing that these ‘reasons’ can be proven to be untenable.
In order for you to come to the truth of what a situation means you must then piece together all the pieces of relevant information that you have gathered fully understanding to see the truth they are pointing at or read the story they tell.
THUS IN ORDER TO TRULY REASON YOU MUST HAVE PASSIVE CONCENTRATION OF YOUR MIND. IF YOUR MIND IS DIVIDED OR SCATTERED YOU CANNOT TRULY REASON, CANNOT TRULY GATHER THE RELEVANT DATA THAT WILL BE NECESSARY TO REASON OUT THE TRUTH. BECAUSE ONLY FORCE CAN DIVIDE OR SCATTER A MIND, THE EXISTENCE OF FORCE IN A MIND OF WHICH LIKE AND DISLIKE AND EMOTIONS ARE PROXIES OR DERIVATIVES IS INIMICAL TO THE EXISTENCE OF TRUE REASON.
ONCE YOUR MIND IS TRULY CONCENTRATED OR UNIFIED YOU MUST DEVOTE TIME TO SEARCH FOR ALL THE DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT FOR YOU TO ARRIVE AT THE TRUTH. A PERSON WHO LIKES AND DISLIKES OR HASTY WILL ONLY CURSORILY SEARCH FOR REASONS OR JUSTIFICATIONS FOR HIS LIKE OR DISLIKE FOR COMING TO A CONCLUSION. THEREFORE LIKING OR DISLIKING IS DETRIMENTAL TO REASONING OUT THE TRUTH BECAUSE THE PERSON WILL SEARCH BRIEFLY AND LOOK OUT IN A BIASED WAY FOR EXCUSES THAT JUSTIFY HIS COMING TO A CONCLUSION TO LIKE OR DISLIKE WHAT HAPPENED.
ONCE YOU HAVE ATTENTIVELY (NOT SOMNOLENTLY) GATHERED ALL THE DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT YOU MUST ATTENTIVELY PIECE THEM TOGETHER TO ARRIVE AT THE TRUTH THAT THEY TELL.
IN ORDER TO GATHER ALL THE FACTS OR PIECES OF INFORMATION THAT ARE RELEVANT YOU NEED A CALM CLEARLY THINKING MIND AND AN EMOTIONAL MIND IS DETRIMENTAL TOWARDS THIS END.
IN ORDER TO WORK WITH THE INFORMATION THUS GATHERED, TO COLLATE THEM, YOU AGAIN NEED A CALM CLEARLY THINKING MIND NOT AN EMOTIONAL LIKING OR DISLIKING MIND.
MENTAL FORCE SCATTERS AND DIVIDES THE MIND THAT IS INIMICAL TO THE ARISE OF CONCENTRATION THAT IS CRUCIAL IN ORDER TO GATHER THE DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO ARRIVING AT THE TRUTH.
MENTAL FORCE OR LIKING AND DISLIKING MAY RESTRICT THE SEARCH FOR DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT AND BIAS THE SEARCH TOWARDS DATA THAT SUPPORT THE LIKE AND DISLIKE.
MENTAL FORCE HAMPERS THE PIECING TOGETHER OF ALL THE RELEVANT PIECES OF INFORMATION THAT LEADS TO THE TRUTH OF WHAT HAPPENED, THE PERSON WHO LIKES OR DISLIKES WILL ONLY PIECE TOGETHER RELEVANT INFORMATION THAT SUPPORTS HIS LIKE OR DISLIKE AND MENTAL FORCE SCATTERS THE CONCENTRATION THAT PREVENTS THAT PERSON FULLY COMPREHENDING WHAT ALL THE RELEVANT INFORMATION MEANS.
THEREFORE MENTAL FORCE IS TOTALLY INCOMPATIBLE TO ALL THE PROCESSES OF TRUE REASONING, IT IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE PASSIVE CONCENTRATION AND PATIENCE THAT REQUIRED TO GATHER AND PUT TOGETHER THE INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT AND COMPREHENDING WHAT THE INFORMATION MEAN INDIVIDUALLY AND COMBINED. MENTAL FORCE THROUGH LIKE OR DISLIKE RESTRICTS IN TIME AND SCOPE THE SEARCH FOR INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT AND BIASES THE SEARCH TO JUSTIFY THE LIKE OR DISLIKE.
A PERSON OF TRUE AS OPPOSED TO FOR SHOW REASON WILL NEVER USE FORCE NOR PERMIT FORCE TO EXIST IN HIS MIND BECAUSE HE CAN SEE AND HE KNOWS THAT FORCE IS PAINFUL AND HARMFUL TO HIS MIND. THEREFORE A PERSON OF TRUE REASON CANNOT BE A FORCEFUL, LIKING OR DISLIKING OR EMOTIONAL PERSON AND IF YOU EXHIBIT FORCE, LIKING OR DISLIKING OR EMOTION YOU ARE NOT A PERSON OF TRUE REASON.
A PERSON OF FORCE OR EMOTION WILL NEVER BE A PERSON OF TRUE REASON BECAUSE IF TRUE REASON EXISTS IN HIM HE WILL SEE AND KNOW THAT THE USE AND EXISTENCE OF FORCE IN HIS MIND IS PAINFUL AND HARMFUL AND END IN INSANITY. THE REASON WHY PEOPLE PERMIT FORCE IN THEIR MINDS IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN INITIALLY COERCED BY OTHERS AND SOCIETY TO ACCEPT FORCE AND THEY HAVE BEEN BRAINWASHED TO DISREGARD THE DELETERIOUS EFFECTS OF FORCE AND REGARD FORCE AS BENEVOLENT WHEN IT IS ALWAYS MALEVOLENT.
The Great Toll Ripoff:
(I am practicing the ploy of using hyperbole or sensationalism (great & ripoff) to attract attention)
According to a report in Malaysia Today, the cost of construction for our tolled highways is RM$13.125 per km but the JKR or Public Works Dept’s rule of thumb is only $2-3 million per km.
The actual cost of construction may be even less as the toll operators inherited big chunks of highway already built by the government. The Penang bridge, Seremban-KL highway, Seremban-Air Keroh & Gurun sections of the NS Highway were already there.
If JKR can built at 2-3 million per km and large stretches of the highway was already built, then the cost to UEM may be much lower than stated and a lot of the money claimed to have been spent may have been siphoned off and profit margin on toll collected is even much higher than stated because the costs were much lower and so these people in places of power are milking the public dry whilst claiming to be their faithful servants.
YOU MAY THINK YOU ARE A PROUD CITIZEN OF AN AFFLUENT COUNTRY BUT YOU MAY BE A GULLIBLE SLAVE RULED BY INCOMPETENT GANGSTERS, PARASITES AND CONMEN.
Rules of true logic:
You must not make conclusions that you have no right to make because you do not know it is true and you must make conclusions that you have the right to make.
Often people jump to conclusions when they have no right to do so. For instance you cannot know for sure whether the Buddha and Jesus existed and what they say eg that there is life after death and heaven is true or false. Therefore you have no right to say they are fakes or what they say is false.
Reflecting their irrational doubt and uncertainty, ordinary people perversely cannot or refuse to make conclusions that they have a right to make and should make. For instance, it is clear that the police are perpetrating a cover up in stating that there are no others involved in the Altantuya murder when they have only charged the policemen with carrying out the murder and Razak for abetting. All murders need an instigator and the police are likely to know who did it because the policemen will know who ordered them to kill her. So, all those who await the trial for justice may be deluding themselves or awaiting in vain. If you do not make conclusions that you should using logic then you are at risk of being cheated by others.
A CALM CLEARLY THINKING COLLECTED OR UNIFIED (CONCENTRATED) MIND AS OPPOSED TO A HASTY (HARRASSED), EMOTIONAL OR FORCE STIRRED, SCATTERED OR DIVIDED MIND IS OF CRUCIAL IMPORTANCE IN TRUE REASON AND IT MUST BE GIVEN TIME TO GATHER FULLY COMPREHENDING ALL INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO THE CASE AND PIECED TOGETHER FULLY COMPREHENDING THE STORY THEY COMBINE TO TELL.
IF YOU SAW WHAT HAPPENED OR YOU KNOW (SOMEONE YOU TRUST TOLD YOU) THEN YOU DO NOT NEED TO REASON BUT IF YOU DID NOT SEE OR KNOW THEN YOU MUST REASON AND IF YOU REASON IT IS CRUCIAL YOUR MIND MUST BE CALM (FORCE OR EMOTION FREE), CONCENTRATED AND YOU MUST GIVE TIME AND EFFORT TO COLLECT ALL THE INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED.
A Permanent Cure For Sadness:
No one enjoys sadness and it is not just only universally tormenting but it is conditioning so that it becomes increasingly intense and hard to control or shake off (also known as depression) with age.
In the past it is unthinkable that a permanent cure for sadness exists and it reflects how significant the consciousness changes after 1977 and in recent years are that it is now possible to permanently exit sadness and it reflects how important what I say is that as simple as the cure is, no one has pointed it out.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR A PERSON WHO TRULY DOES NOT STRETCH HIS SYLLABLES AND THENCE UNITS OF MOTION TO SUFFER FROM SADNESS AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR A PERSON WHO STRETCHES HIS SYLLABLES NOT TO SUFFER FROM SADNESS THAT INTENSIFIES WITH AGE.
THEREFORE THE PERMANENT CURE FOR SADNESS IS SIMPLY TO PAY PERSISTENT ATTENTION TO DETECT AND ELIMINATE WITHOUT REMAINDER ALL (FORCEFUL) STRETCHING OR PROLONGING OF SYLLABLES.
IT IS THE INCESSANT (NOT FREQUENT) UNNECESSARY FOR SHOW PROLONGING USE OF MENTAL FORCE TO STRETCH OR PROLONG SYLLABLES THAT IS THE ROOT OF THE LINGERING AND THE ROOT OF THE MALAISE FROM THE INCESSANT APPLICATION OF PAINFUL FORCE ON THE MIND THAT IS THE CAUSE OF THE INSOLUBLE TORMENTING SADNESS.
IT MAY BE TRUE THAT THERE HAVE NOT BEEN CONSCIOUSNESS CHANGES AFTER 1977 OR IN RECENT YEARS OR THEY ARE WORTHLESS AND WHAT I SAY, DO NOT STRETCH YOUR SYLLABLES IS WORTHLESS OR IT MAY BE YOU WHO IS HEEDLESS AND HEADING FOR A RETURN TO THE AGONY, DOOM AND GLOOM THAT CHARACTERIZED EXISTENCE BEFORE 1977 IN FUTURE EXISTENCES.
A calm mind enjoys everything better:
A calm mind enjoys existence and all its sensory strands (sights, sounds, smell, taste and touch) better and it reflects the perverse nature of people who are emotional, who wish to extract the utmost from existence and sensate pleasures that they must do and say everything the hard way creating insoluble stress, restlessness and distraction for themselves and everyone else and mandates they exist isolated in their private worlds and only sampling the world in hasty furtive snapshots that leave them unsatisfied and desiring for more that they are forever never quite able to achieve.
A mind whose concentration is scattered diffusely or divided that can only come about as a result of the impact of force enjoys less whatever sensory experience compared to a mind that is calm, clearly thinking composed, present and unified.
A mind that is stressed and restless that are the mandatory results of the relentless application of force via emotions cannot enjoy sensory experiences as well as a mind that is calm, unstressed and not restless.
A MIND THAT IS CALM (THAT IS FREE FROM FORCE OR EMOTION), CLEARLY THINKING IS MORE OPEN OR RECEPTIVE AND ATTUNED TO ITS SENSES AND THEREFORE APPRECIATES AND ENJOYS WHATEVER PLEASANT SENSORY INPUTS BETTER THAN A MIND THAT IS AGITATED (EXCITED, RESTLESS, AGGRESSIVE OR EMOTIONAL) WHICH IS INHERENTLY DISTRACTED (CONCENTRATION SCATTERED OR DIVIDED) AND HARRASSED BY STRESS IN A PRIVATE MAKE BELIEVE WORLD ISOLATED FROM THE REALITY OR EXTERNAL WORLD THAT HE SO CRAVES OR IS GREEDY TO EXIST IN.
The Teachings and discipline:
The Buddha is not indulging in unnecessary verbosity in differentiating between his teachings and discipline because they are very different things.
Teachings are things he tells you that you do not know like that the mind that has well established the first rapture with discursive meritorious thinking is headed for one eon in heaven and afterwards depending on what he has done, he will descend even to hell or the animal womb.
The discipline is the things the Buddha taught you to train in like not stealing, not lying, not chattering, not tale bearing, not killing, meditate to calm your mind, pay attention to what and how you say or do or think things.
Who Is A Saint?
My description of the saint corresponds with the Buddha’s and if you disagree with me, you are disagreeing with the Buddha and if the Buddha’s view is in line with the Father’s view, you have wrong view.
"A sage should be truthful, not arrogant, not deceitful, not given to slandering others, and should be without anger. He should remove the evil of attachment and wrongly directed longing; he should conquer drowsiness and sloth. He should not lapse into untruth nor generate love for sense objects. He should not delight in what is past, nor be fond of what is new, nor sorrow for what is disappearing, nor crave for the attractive.
"Greed, I say, is a great flood; a whirlpool sucking one down, a constant yearning, seeking a hold, continually in movement; difficult to cross is the morass of desire. A sage does not deviate from truth, standing on firm ground; renouncing all, he is truly called 'calmed.'
"Having actually experienced the Dhamma he has realized the highest knowledge. He comports himself correctly and does not envy anyone here. He who has left behind sensual pleasures, an attachment difficult to leave behind, does not grieve nor have any longing.
"Dry out that which is past, let there be nothing for you in the future. If you do not grasp at anything in the present you will go about at peace. One who, has no cherishing of it as 'mine,' and who does not grieve for what is non-existent suffers no loss in the world. For him there is no thought of anything as 'this is mine' or 'this is another's'; realizing, 'nothing is mine,' he does not grieve.
"To be not callous, not greedy, at rest and unruffled by circumstances. For one who does not crave, who has understanding, there is no production (of new kamma). Refraining from initiating (new kamma) he sees security everywhere. A sage does not speak in terms of being equal, lower or higher. Calmed and without selfishness he neither grasps nor rejects."
I Have Already Taken Medicine:
When I took the temperature of a patient who said he had a fever, he informed me without being asked “I have already taken medicine”.
I did not ask him why his temperature is or may be normal so why is he volunteering the information except that it may reflect a guilty conscience, he is presumptuous or he knows the temperature will be normal and he does not mean what he said. If he meant what he said he should have said that I want you to know that I am not lying because my temperature may be normal because I had taken medication.
It is false perception that will end in mad perception if you perceive that “I have taken medicine already” is an appropriate response to my mere taking your temperature.
Why is he so anxious to reassure me unasked that his temperature may be normal because he has taken medicine?
He implies that his temperature may be normal because he has taken medicine but he did not said that, merely hinted or implied and that is not saying what you mean.
THEREFORE A LOT OF PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THEY DO NOT SAY WHAT THEY MEAN BUT THEY SAY SOMETHING ELSE (HE MEANS LIKELY THAT HE IS NOT LYING, HIS TEMPERATURE IS NORMAL BECAUSE OF MEDICINE) AND THEY HAVE FALSE PERCEPTION THAT WHAT THEY SAY IS RELEVANT OR APPROPRIATE TO THE SITUATION (MY TAKING HIS TEMPERATURE). HE IS GIVING ME AN EXCUSE OR A REASON THAT IS PLAUSIBLE BUT NOT NECESSARILY TRUE WHY HIS TEMPERATURE WILL BE NORMAL.
Whatever is transmissible must be receivable:
Why transmit something if it is not receivable? Why broadcast TV or radio if they are not receivable?
Therefore the fact that something is universally transmitted must mean it must be also (universally) receivable even if those who are transmitting and receiving so do not realize exactly what they are doing or the nature of what they are transmitting.
Apart from the message that they are transmitting, ordinary people are also transmitting the prolongation of force that is audible in the stretching of syllables, the forceful changing in speed and strength of force that is audible in the changes in pitch of prolonged syllables and speed of forming syllables and loudness that can be received them who perceive them as stylish or charming, likeable or dislikeable whilst closing a blind eye to the stirring in speed and strength of their mental force that leads to stress, restlessness and distraction that they simultaneously also received or experienced.
EVEN IF PEOPLE ARE NOT AWARE THAT THERE IS ALWAYS A STYLE THAT IS UNNECESSARY IN THE WAYS THEY SPEAK AND IT IS NOTHING MORE THAN HOW THEY STRETCH THEIR SYLLABLES, CHANGE SPEED AND LOUDNESS AND THIS IS IN TURN NOTHING MORE THAN HOW THEY PROLONG THE USE OF FORCE, CHANGE IN SPEED AND STRENGTH OF FORCE WITHIN AND BETWEEN SYLLABLES, THEY ARE ALL CAPABLE OF TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING STYLE, PROLONGING USE OF FORCE, CHANGES IN SPEED AND STRENGTH OF FORCE THAT APART FROM BEING PERCEIVED AS CHARMING OR MEANINGFUL, ALSO INFALLIBLY CREATES STRESS, RESTLESSNESS AND DISTRACTION FOR THE TRANSMITTER THAT IS ALSO CREATED IN THE RECIPIENT.
NO MATTER HOW GOOD YOU THINK YOU ARE, IF YOU SPEAK WITH STYLE, WITH CONSTANT STRETCHING, CHANGES OF SPEED AND LOUDNESS, YOU ARE HARMING YOURSELF AND OTHERS AND HEADED FOR ACCOUNTABILITY NOT SAFETY.
IF YOU CANNOT SEE YOURSELF STRETCHING SYLLABLES, CHANGING SPEED OR LOUDNESS YOU ARE UNPERCEIVING AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE FOR THOSE SEE BUT DO NOT SEE.
Correcting wrong:
I said the pope did not look like a saint not to deprecate him or Christianity but to correct what is wrong with what is right.
What is the use of appointing a saint that is only valid amongst humans and not exalted by God?
Are you God? Then why are you so anxious to appoint saints? Leave to God to appoint saints whilst there are more pressing things for you to do.
Everything that is true in this world is objective and applies to everyone. Everything that is subjective and differs from person to person is false.
Thus such and such is a saint or sage or Brahmin and it corresponds with what the Buddha said:
"To be not callous, not greedy, at rest and unruffled by circumstances. For one who does not crave, who has understanding, there is no production (of new kamma). Refraining from initiating (new kamma) he sees security everywhere. A sage does not speak in terms of being equal, lower or higher. Calmed and without selfishness he neither grasps nor rejects."
I say a true saint, no matter how old, is always equanimous or passively detached (neither liking nor disliking, neither pained nor laughing) even if his body is racked by pain. Whatever the circumstances he is calm, clearly thinking and unshaken and therefore it follows from what I said that the pope does not look like a saint. (Let God decide who is and is not a saint).
This is likely to stir the ire (arouse immediate and even intense dislike) if you are a fan of the pope but how do you know I am not correct? By what reason and so rapidly (immediately) you are upset by what I say?
They might justify their opposition to what I say variously like “How do I know I am right?”, “You should show more respect to authority”, “Careful God will punish you”, “I am nasty or wicked to say that”.
These may appear to be reasons but they are not true reasons but excuses to put me down and even intimidate me to be afraid of saying what I say.
What I said is not based on emotion because I know I am not emotional as I say it and I have given an explanation why I said so: Whatever the circumstances he is calm, clearly thinking and unshaken or distressed and therefore it follows from what I said that the pope does not look like a saint.
Here as elsewhere, those who are undiscerning might think it is reason that is their receptionist but it is emotion, their likes and dislikes that is their receptionist or mistress whispering into their ears what to like and dislike.
JUST BECAUSE I SAID WHAT I SAID ABOVE DOES NOT MEAN I AM HOSTILE TO THE POPE, I AM DENIGRATING HIM AND IF YOU THINK THAT BECAUSE I SAID THAT, I AM ATTACKING HIM, YOU HAVE FALSE PERCEPTION THAT WILL END IN MAD PERCEPTION. ON WHAT GROUNDS DO YOU SAY I AM ATTACKING HIM EXCEPT THAT YOU ARE EMOTIONAL, FEEL ATTACKED BY ME?
WHAT IS REASONING?
TRUE REASON IS BASICALLY UNEMOTIONALLY ARRIVING AT A CONCLUSION OF SOMETHING YOU DID NOT SEE OR KNOW BASED ON FACTS OF THE CASE AND KNOWING WHAT CAN AND CANNOT HAPPEN IN THE CASE.
AS SOON AS EMOTIONS ENTER THE PICTURE, AS SOON AS YOU ARE SEIZED BY LIKE AND DISLIKE REGARDING THE SITUATION AT HAND, AND THE MORE STRONGER YOUR LIKE AND DISLIKE THAT IS AROUSED, YOU LOSE YOUR SENSE OF OBJECTIVITY AND BECOME A POOR DETERMINATOR OF WHAT COULD AND COULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED BECAUSE YOU PREFER TO BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR LIKE AND DISLIKE NOT AS IT REALLY DID HAPPEN.
IT IS AN ILLUSION THAT REASON IS THE BASIS OF PEOPLE’S DECISIONS OR WHAT THEY PERCEIVE AND THE TRUE BASIS IS THEIR MENTAL FORCE ACTING EITHER DIRECTLY OR NAKEDLY OR INDIRECTLY AS THEIR LIKES OR DISLIKES OR THEIR DERIVATIVES THE EMOTIONS LIKE PRIDE, SHAME, GREED, LUST, ENVY, JEALOUSY, ANGER.
THUS THERE IS NOTHING MYSERIOUS OR WONDROUS OR INDEFINABLE ABOUT REASONING OR LOGIC AND IF YOU THINK SO YOU HAVE WRONG VIEW OR FALSE PERCEPTION (THAT WILL END IN MAD PERCEPTION). REASONING OR LOGIC IS SIMPLY UNEMOTIONALLY, UNFORCEFULLY ARRIVING AT THE CONCLUSION OF WHAT HAPPENED OR WHAT POSSIBILITIES COULD HAVE HAPPENED BASED ON KNOWING OR SEEING WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED IN THE PAST. IF YOU SAW WHAT HAPPENED, OR YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED (SOMEONE TOLD YOU) THEN THERE IS NO REASON TO RESORT TO REASONING)
REASONING IS ATTENTIVE DATA COLLECTING & PIECING TOGETHER:
The requisites of true (as opposed to faked) reasoning is mindful or attentive patient collecting of all information that may be relevant and the attentive or mindful piecing together of these bits of information to get a picture of what they tell. If you are hasty and you need force to be hasty, you will jump to conclusions based on inadequate or haphazard gathering of information.
Therefore if your concentration is scattered (diffuse) or divided you lack the concentration that is necessary to gather all the data that may be relevant and understand what they mean. If your concentration is scattered you may have the pieces of information at hand but not understand what they mean or their implications are lost to you or your scattered seeing but not seeing mind. And a person’s mind is only scattered or divided forcibly or force is need to scatter or divide a mind’s concentration. Therefore mental force is inimical to the concentration of the mind which is a requisite to gathering well data that may be relevant and understanding well what each piece of data mean and what they all mean when added together.
In order for you to arrive by true reason what a situation means you must allow sufficient time and perceptive unemotional searching for information that may be helpful at arriving at the truth. It is not possible for you or anyone to instantly arrive at a conclusion that I am wrong and nastily attacking the pope and Christianity based on what I said but instead it is based on your dislike for what I said that you perceived is attacking the pope and you bolstered your conclusion with hastily assembled ‘reasons’ why you came to the conclusion not realizing that these ‘reasons’ can be proven to be untenable.
In order for you to come to the truth of what a situation means you must then piece together all the pieces of relevant information that you have gathered fully understanding to see the truth they are pointing at or read the story they tell.
THUS IN ORDER TO TRULY REASON YOU MUST HAVE PASSIVE CONCENTRATION OF YOUR MIND. IF YOUR MIND IS DIVIDED OR SCATTERED YOU CANNOT TRULY REASON, CANNOT TRULY GATHER THE RELEVANT DATA THAT WILL BE NECESSARY TO REASON OUT THE TRUTH. BECAUSE ONLY FORCE CAN DIVIDE OR SCATTER A MIND, THE EXISTENCE OF FORCE IN A MIND OF WHICH LIKE AND DISLIKE AND EMOTIONS ARE PROXIES OR DERIVATIVES IS INIMICAL TO THE EXISTENCE OF TRUE REASON.
ONCE YOUR MIND IS TRULY CONCENTRATED OR UNIFIED YOU MUST DEVOTE TIME TO SEARCH FOR ALL THE DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT FOR YOU TO ARRIVE AT THE TRUTH. A PERSON WHO LIKES AND DISLIKES OR HASTY WILL ONLY CURSORILY SEARCH FOR REASONS OR JUSTIFICATIONS FOR HIS LIKE OR DISLIKE FOR COMING TO A CONCLUSION. THEREFORE LIKING OR DISLIKING IS DETRIMENTAL TO REASONING OUT THE TRUTH BECAUSE THE PERSON WILL SEARCH BRIEFLY AND LOOK OUT IN A BIASED WAY FOR EXCUSES THAT JUSTIFY HIS COMING TO A CONCLUSION TO LIKE OR DISLIKE WHAT HAPPENED.
ONCE YOU HAVE ATTENTIVELY (NOT SOMNOLENTLY) GATHERED ALL THE DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT YOU MUST ATTENTIVELY PIECE THEM TOGETHER TO ARRIVE AT THE TRUTH THAT THEY TELL.
IN ORDER TO GATHER ALL THE FACTS OR PIECES OF INFORMATION THAT ARE RELEVANT YOU NEED A CALM CLEARLY THINKING MIND AND AN EMOTIONAL MIND IS DETRIMENTAL TOWARDS THIS END.
IN ORDER TO WORK WITH THE INFORMATION THUS GATHERED, TO COLLATE THEM, YOU AGAIN NEED A CALM CLEARLY THINKING MIND NOT AN EMOTIONAL LIKING OR DISLIKING MIND.
MENTAL FORCE SCATTERS AND DIVIDES THE MIND THAT IS INIMICAL TO THE ARISE OF CONCENTRATION THAT IS CRUCIAL IN ORDER TO GATHER THE DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO ARRIVING AT THE TRUTH.
MENTAL FORCE OR LIKING AND DISLIKING MAY RESTRICT THE SEARCH FOR DATA THAT MAY BE RELEVANT AND BIAS THE SEARCH TOWARDS DATA THAT SUPPORT THE LIKE AND DISLIKE.
MENTAL FORCE HAMPERS THE PIECING TOGETHER OF ALL THE RELEVANT PIECES OF INFORMATION THAT LEADS TO THE TRUTH OF WHAT HAPPENED, THE PERSON WHO LIKES OR DISLIKES WILL ONLY PIECE TOGETHER RELEVANT INFORMATION THAT SUPPORTS HIS LIKE OR DISLIKE AND MENTAL FORCE SCATTERS THE CONCENTRATION THAT PREVENTS THAT PERSON FULLY COMPREHENDING WHAT ALL THE RELEVANT INFORMATION MEANS.
THEREFORE MENTAL FORCE IS TOTALLY INCOMPATIBLE TO ALL THE PROCESSES OF TRUE REASONING, IT IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE PASSIVE CONCENTRATION AND PATIENCE THAT REQUIRED TO GATHER AND PUT TOGETHER THE INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT AND COMPREHENDING WHAT THE INFORMATION MEAN INDIVIDUALLY AND COMBINED. MENTAL FORCE THROUGH LIKE OR DISLIKE RESTRICTS IN TIME AND SCOPE THE SEARCH FOR INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT AND BIASES THE SEARCH TO JUSTIFY THE LIKE OR DISLIKE.
A PERSON OF TRUE AS OPPOSED TO FOR SHOW REASON WILL NEVER USE FORCE NOR PERMIT FORCE TO EXIST IN HIS MIND BECAUSE HE CAN SEE AND HE KNOWS THAT FORCE IS PAINFUL AND HARMFUL TO HIS MIND. THEREFORE A PERSON OF TRUE REASON CANNOT BE A FORCEFUL, LIKING OR DISLIKING OR EMOTIONAL PERSON AND IF YOU EXHIBIT FORCE, LIKING OR DISLIKING OR EMOTION YOU ARE NOT A PERSON OF TRUE REASON.
A PERSON OF FORCE OR EMOTION WILL NEVER BE A PERSON OF TRUE REASON BECAUSE IF TRUE REASON EXISTS IN HIM HE WILL SEE AND KNOW THAT THE USE AND EXISTENCE OF FORCE IN HIS MIND IS PAINFUL AND HARMFUL AND END IN INSANITY. THE REASON WHY PEOPLE PERMIT FORCE IN THEIR MINDS IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN INITIALLY COERCED BY OTHERS AND SOCIETY TO ACCEPT FORCE AND THEY HAVE BEEN BRAINWASHED TO DISREGARD THE DELETERIOUS EFFECTS OF FORCE AND REGARD FORCE AS BENEVOLENT WHEN IT IS ALWAYS MALEVOLENT.
The Great Toll Ripoff:
(I am practicing the ploy of using hyperbole or sensationalism (great & ripoff) to attract attention)
According to a report in Malaysia Today, the cost of construction for our tolled highways is RM$13.125 per km but the JKR or Public Works Dept’s rule of thumb is only $2-3 million per km.
The actual cost of construction may be even less as the toll operators inherited big chunks of highway already built by the government. The Penang bridge, Seremban-KL highway, Seremban-Air Keroh & Gurun sections of the NS Highway were already there.
If JKR can built at 2-3 million per km and large stretches of the highway was already built, then the cost to UEM may be much lower than stated and a lot of the money claimed to have been spent may have been siphoned off and profit margin on toll collected is even much higher than stated because the costs were much lower and so these people in places of power are milking the public dry whilst claiming to be their faithful servants.
YOU MAY THINK YOU ARE A PROUD CITIZEN OF AN AFFLUENT COUNTRY BUT YOU MAY BE A GULLIBLE SLAVE RULED BY INCOMPETENT GANGSTERS, PARASITES AND CONMEN.
Rules of true logic:
You must not make conclusions that you have no right to make because you do not know it is true and you must make conclusions that you have the right to make.
Often people jump to conclusions when they have no right to do so. For instance you cannot know for sure whether the Buddha and Jesus existed and what they say eg that there is life after death and heaven is true or false. Therefore you have no right to say they are fakes or what they say is false.
Reflecting their irrational doubt and uncertainty, ordinary people perversely cannot or refuse to make conclusions that they have a right to make and should make. For instance, it is clear that the police are perpetrating a cover up in stating that there are no others involved in the Altantuya murder when they have only charged the policemen with carrying out the murder and Razak for abetting. All murders need an instigator and the police are likely to know who did it because the policemen will know who ordered them to kill her. So, all those who await the trial for justice may be deluding themselves or awaiting in vain. If you do not make conclusions that you should using logic then you are at risk of being cheated by others.
A CALM CLEARLY THINKING COLLECTED OR UNIFIED (CONCENTRATED) MIND AS OPPOSED TO A HASTY (HARRASSED), EMOTIONAL OR FORCE STIRRED, SCATTERED OR DIVIDED MIND IS OF CRUCIAL IMPORTANCE IN TRUE REASON AND IT MUST BE GIVEN TIME TO GATHER FULLY COMPREHENDING ALL INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO THE CASE AND PIECED TOGETHER FULLY COMPREHENDING THE STORY THEY COMBINE TO TELL.
IF YOU SAW WHAT HAPPENED OR YOU KNOW (SOMEONE YOU TRUST TOLD YOU) THEN YOU DO NOT NEED TO REASON BUT IF YOU DID NOT SEE OR KNOW THEN YOU MUST REASON AND IF YOU REASON IT IS CRUCIAL YOUR MIND MUST BE CALM (FORCE OR EMOTION FREE), CONCENTRATED AND YOU MUST GIVE TIME AND EFFORT TO COLLECT ALL THE INFORMATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED.
A Permanent Cure For Sadness:
No one enjoys sadness and it is not just only universally tormenting but it is conditioning so that it becomes increasingly intense and hard to control or shake off (also known as depression) with age.
In the past it is unthinkable that a permanent cure for sadness exists and it reflects how significant the consciousness changes after 1977 and in recent years are that it is now possible to permanently exit sadness and it reflects how important what I say is that as simple as the cure is, no one has pointed it out.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR A PERSON WHO TRULY DOES NOT STRETCH HIS SYLLABLES AND THENCE UNITS OF MOTION TO SUFFER FROM SADNESS AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR A PERSON WHO STRETCHES HIS SYLLABLES NOT TO SUFFER FROM SADNESS THAT INTENSIFIES WITH AGE.
THEREFORE THE PERMANENT CURE FOR SADNESS IS SIMPLY TO PAY PERSISTENT ATTENTION TO DETECT AND ELIMINATE WITHOUT REMAINDER ALL (FORCEFUL) STRETCHING OR PROLONGING OF SYLLABLES.
IT IS THE INCESSANT (NOT FREQUENT) UNNECESSARY FOR SHOW PROLONGING USE OF MENTAL FORCE TO STRETCH OR PROLONG SYLLABLES THAT IS THE ROOT OF THE LINGERING AND THE ROOT OF THE MALAISE FROM THE INCESSANT APPLICATION OF PAINFUL FORCE ON THE MIND THAT IS THE CAUSE OF THE INSOLUBLE TORMENTING SADNESS.
IT MAY BE TRUE THAT THERE HAVE NOT BEEN CONSCIOUSNESS CHANGES AFTER 1977 OR IN RECENT YEARS OR THEY ARE WORTHLESS AND WHAT I SAY, DO NOT STRETCH YOUR SYLLABLES IS WORTHLESS OR IT MAY BE YOU WHO IS HEEDLESS AND HEADING FOR A RETURN TO THE AGONY, DOOM AND GLOOM THAT CHARACTERIZED EXISTENCE BEFORE 1977 IN FUTURE EXISTENCES.
A calm mind enjoys everything better:
A calm mind enjoys existence and all its sensory strands (sights, sounds, smell, taste and touch) better and it reflects the perverse nature of people who are emotional, who wish to extract the utmost from existence and sensate pleasures that they must do and say everything the hard way creating insoluble stress, restlessness and distraction for themselves and everyone else and mandates they exist isolated in their private worlds and only sampling the world in hasty furtive snapshots that leave them unsatisfied and desiring for more that they are forever never quite able to achieve.
A mind whose concentration is scattered diffusely or divided that can only come about as a result of the impact of force enjoys less whatever sensory experience compared to a mind that is calm, clearly thinking composed, present and unified.
A mind that is stressed and restless that are the mandatory results of the relentless application of force via emotions cannot enjoy sensory experiences as well as a mind that is calm, unstressed and not restless.
A MIND THAT IS CALM (THAT IS FREE FROM FORCE OR EMOTION), CLEARLY THINKING IS MORE OPEN OR RECEPTIVE AND ATTUNED TO ITS SENSES AND THEREFORE APPRECIATES AND ENJOYS WHATEVER PLEASANT SENSORY INPUTS BETTER THAN A MIND THAT IS AGITATED (EXCITED, RESTLESS, AGGRESSIVE OR EMOTIONAL) WHICH IS INHERENTLY DISTRACTED (CONCENTRATION SCATTERED OR DIVIDED) AND HARRASSED BY STRESS IN A PRIVATE MAKE BELIEVE WORLD ISOLATED FROM THE REALITY OR EXTERNAL WORLD THAT HE SO CRAVES OR IS GREEDY TO EXIST IN.
The Teachings and discipline:
The Buddha is not indulging in unnecessary verbosity in differentiating between his teachings and discipline because they are very different things.
Teachings are things he tells you that you do not know like that the mind that has well established the first rapture with discursive meritorious thinking is headed for one eon in heaven and afterwards depending on what he has done, he will descend even to hell or the animal womb.
The discipline is the things the Buddha taught you to train in like not stealing, not lying, not chattering, not tale bearing, not killing, meditate to calm your mind, pay attention to what and how you say or do or think things.
Who Is A Saint?
My description of the saint corresponds with the Buddha’s and if you disagree with me, you are disagreeing with the Buddha and if the Buddha’s view is in line with the Father’s view, you have wrong view.
"A sage should be truthful, not arrogant, not deceitful, not given to slandering others, and should be without anger. He should remove the evil of attachment and wrongly directed longing; he should conquer drowsiness and sloth. He should not lapse into untruth nor generate love for sense objects. He should not delight in what is past, nor be fond of what is new, nor sorrow for what is disappearing, nor crave for the attractive.
"Greed, I say, is a great flood; a whirlpool sucking one down, a constant yearning, seeking a hold, continually in movement; difficult to cross is the morass of desire. A sage does not deviate from truth, standing on firm ground; renouncing all, he is truly called 'calmed.'
"Having actually experienced the Dhamma he has realized the highest knowledge. He comports himself correctly and does not envy anyone here. He who has left behind sensual pleasures, an attachment difficult to leave behind, does not grieve nor have any longing.
"Dry out that which is past, let there be nothing for you in the future. If you do not grasp at anything in the present you will go about at peace. One who, has no cherishing of it as 'mine,' and who does not grieve for what is non-existent suffers no loss in the world. For him there is no thought of anything as 'this is mine' or 'this is another's'; realizing, 'nothing is mine,' he does not grieve.
"To be not callous, not greedy, at rest and unruffled by circumstances. For one who does not crave, who has understanding, there is no production (of new kamma). Refraining from initiating (new kamma) he sees security everywhere. A sage does not speak in terms of being equal, lower or higher. Calmed and without selfishness he neither grasps nor rejects."
I Have Already Taken Medicine:
When I took the temperature of a patient who said he had a fever, he informed me without being asked “I have already taken medicine”.
I did not ask him why his temperature is or may be normal so why is he volunteering the information except that it may reflect a guilty conscience, he is presumptuous or he knows the temperature will be normal and he does not mean what he said. If he meant what he said he should have said that I want you to know that I am not lying because my temperature may be normal because I had taken medication.
It is false perception that will end in mad perception if you perceive that “I have taken medicine already” is an appropriate response to my mere taking your temperature.
Why is he so anxious to reassure me unasked that his temperature may be normal because he has taken medicine?
He implies that his temperature may be normal because he has taken medicine but he did not said that, merely hinted or implied and that is not saying what you mean.
THEREFORE A LOT OF PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THEY DO NOT SAY WHAT THEY MEAN BUT THEY SAY SOMETHING ELSE (HE MEANS LIKELY THAT HE IS NOT LYING, HIS TEMPERATURE IS NORMAL BECAUSE OF MEDICINE) AND THEY HAVE FALSE PERCEPTION THAT WHAT THEY SAY IS RELEVANT OR APPROPRIATE TO THE SITUATION (MY TAKING HIS TEMPERATURE). HE IS GIVING ME AN EXCUSE OR A REASON THAT IS PLAUSIBLE BUT NOT NECESSARILY TRUE WHY HIS TEMPERATURE WILL BE NORMAL.
Whatever is transmissible must be receivable:
Why transmit something if it is not receivable? Why broadcast TV or radio if they are not receivable?
Therefore the fact that something is universally transmitted must mean it must be also (universally) receivable even if those who are transmitting and receiving so do not realize exactly what they are doing or the nature of what they are transmitting.
Apart from the message that they are transmitting, ordinary people are also transmitting the prolongation of force that is audible in the stretching of syllables, the forceful changing in speed and strength of force that is audible in the changes in pitch of prolonged syllables and speed of forming syllables and loudness that can be received them who perceive them as stylish or charming, likeable or dislikeable whilst closing a blind eye to the stirring in speed and strength of their mental force that leads to stress, restlessness and distraction that they simultaneously also received or experienced.
EVEN IF PEOPLE ARE NOT AWARE THAT THERE IS ALWAYS A STYLE THAT IS UNNECESSARY IN THE WAYS THEY SPEAK AND IT IS NOTHING MORE THAN HOW THEY STRETCH THEIR SYLLABLES, CHANGE SPEED AND LOUDNESS AND THIS IS IN TURN NOTHING MORE THAN HOW THEY PROLONG THE USE OF FORCE, CHANGE IN SPEED AND STRENGTH OF FORCE WITHIN AND BETWEEN SYLLABLES, THEY ARE ALL CAPABLE OF TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING STYLE, PROLONGING USE OF FORCE, CHANGES IN SPEED AND STRENGTH OF FORCE THAT APART FROM BEING PERCEIVED AS CHARMING OR MEANINGFUL, ALSO INFALLIBLY CREATES STRESS, RESTLESSNESS AND DISTRACTION FOR THE TRANSMITTER THAT IS ALSO CREATED IN THE RECIPIENT.
NO MATTER HOW GOOD YOU THINK YOU ARE, IF YOU SPEAK WITH STYLE, WITH CONSTANT STRETCHING, CHANGES OF SPEED AND LOUDNESS, YOU ARE HARMING YOURSELF AND OTHERS AND HEADED FOR ACCOUNTABILITY NOT SAFETY.
IF YOU CANNOT SEE YOURSELF STRETCHING SYLLABLES, CHANGING SPEED OR LOUDNESS YOU ARE UNPERCEIVING AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE FOR THOSE SEE BUT DO NOT SEE.
Correcting wrong:
I said the pope did not look like a saint not to deprecate him or Christianity but to correct what is wrong with what is right.
What is the use of appointing a saint that is only valid amongst humans and not exalted by God?
Are you God? Then why are you so anxious to appoint saints? Leave to God to appoint saints whilst there are more pressing things for you to do.
Everything that is true in this world is objective and applies to everyone. Everything that is subjective and differs from person to person is false.
Thus such and such is a saint or sage or Brahmin and it corresponds with what the Buddha said:
"To be not callous, not greedy, at rest and unruffled by circumstances. For one who does not crave, who has understanding, there is no production (of new kamma). Refraining from initiating (new kamma) he sees security everywhere. A sage does not speak in terms of being equal, lower or higher. Calmed and without selfishness he neither grasps nor rejects."
