Three bases for helping others:
People may help or assist another for three reasons.
1) By programming, for show because it is expected of them. Thus a prime minister may visit a disaster scene not because he wants to do it but for show, because it is expected of him and he is programmed to do so by protocol or his handlers tell him what to do. A salesperson is very helpful not because there is true reason for it but because he wants to clinch a sale. People join in to help others because they are aware they are being watched and they feel compelled to join in for show to appear to be helping.
2) People may be distressed by the sight and sounds of someone in distress and thus driven to help in which case it is the stirred mental force or emotion that is the basis of the action. The assistance is driven by blind dangerous force not true reason.
3) There is the person who does not assist others for show according to programming nor because of stirred mental force or distress but he assists because he sees another in distress and understands he can help to alleviate another's suffering.
THERE IS MERIT TO BE EXPERIENCED AS FUTURE HAPPINESS IN HELPING OTHERS WHILST THERE IS DEMERIT TO BE EXPERIENCED AS FUTURE SUFFERING IN TROUBLING OR HARMING OTHERS.
THERE IS LITTLE MERIT EVEN DEMERIT IN FOR SHOW HELPING OTHERS BECAUSE THAT IS HYPOCRITICAL OR MOTIVATED BY SELF GAIN. HELP THAT IS DRIVEN BY BLIND FORCE OR STIRRED DISTRESS IS THE WRONG REASON FOR HELPING OTHERS. THE CORRECT REASON FOR HELPING OTHERS IS FREE FROM EMOTION OR DISTRESS, THE PERSON SEES ANOTHER IN DISTRESS AND HE WANTS TO RELIEVE THE DISTRESS OF THE OTHER PERSON.
HELPING OTHERS CONFERS MERIT BUT THIS IS MINOR COMPARED WITH THE (INCOMPARABLE) MERIT OF ACHIEVING THE FIRST HIGHER STATE OF MIND BY SHEDDING STYLE AND NOT CONSTANTLY RADIATING OTHERS WITH FORCE THAT HARMS OTHERS. YOUR MERIT IN HELPING OTHERS IS FAR DWARFED BY THE PERSECUTION OF OTHERS THROUGH YOUR BOMBARDMENT OF OTHERS WITH FORCE THAT STRESSES, MAKE RESTLESS AND DISTRACTS THEM.
The hierarchy of merit:
1) To assist another in distress through calm reason without emotion is the highest eg someone swept to sea asks help from God and God fashions a log that floats by for him to grasp without stirring emotion. This is reason based true assistance, you see another is in trouble and you can do something to help and you do so.
2) To assist someone because you are distressed by the distress of another is next highest. It is assistance driven by force not reason.
3) To assist another for show, or hypocritically or for selfish gains eg politicians visit site of disaster so that people may vote for them in the next election.
4) Person does not assist nor harm others for any reason.
5) To take action that harms others or cause others suffering is the lowest. Seeing someone in distress, you enjoy and even add to that person’s suffering.
Julie Burchill: I've only just become addicted to it.
People think they speak great substance or meaning but they speak nonsense and are in danger of deadly future suffering.
Just because you are born does not mean others are not dying, just because you have only become addicted to it does not mean there are not many who are disenchanted.
Just because many are leaving Facebook does not mean it is over and so she is overreacting and barking up the wrong tree.
People think such statements are funny, witting but it is nonsense and completely misunderstands what has happened that has deadly consequences for those responsible.
SINCE WHEN HAS IT BEEN SAID FACEBOOK IS OVER? JUST BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE EXITING IN DROVES DOES NOT MEAN IT IS OVER. JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE ONLY JUST BECOMING ADDICTED DOES NOT MEAN OTHERS CANNOT BE DISENCHANTED. SO SHE IS TALKING NONSENSE SHE THINKS IS FUNNY OR TRUE AND SUPPOSEDLY REPUTABLE NEWSPAPERS SEE NOTHING WRONG TO PRINT.
Liz Hurley’s quickie with Arun Nayar
Divorce in just 92 seconds
What is said is false, quickie is about the manner or style of the divorce and what matters and is the substance is the divorce and so the person is dwelling on the style rather than substance of the happening.
‘QUICKIE’ IS VAGUE AND CAN AND IS INTENDED TO CAST MISCHIEVOUS ASPERSIONS (EG QUICK OR RUSHED SEX ACT). THE SUBSTANCE OF WHAT HAPPENED IS NOT THE QUICKNESS OF THE DIVORCE BUT THE DIVORCE AND SO AS ALWAYS IT IS THE MEANINGLESS STYLE RATHER THAN THE SUBSTANCE THAT STYLISH PEOPLE GIVE ACCENT AND FIND MEANINGFUL AND BECAUSE THAT IS DELUSION IT IS THE PATH TO SUFFERING EVEN ETERNALLY.
BY QUICK THEY MEAN RUSHED AND RUSHING IS ALWAYS SUFFERING, OFTEN FOR SHOW AND WHOEVER RUSHES IS HEADED FOR TORMENT NOT BLISS.
The true picture of Malaysia’s national debt:
Like all good (read bad) politicians, Najib shuffles statistics to say Malaysia’s foreign debt has declined 5% from RM233,136 million to RM221,741million partly apparently due to strengthening ringgit and high oil price oil windfall (nothing to boast about).
What he (conveniently) neglected to mention is that Malaysia’s domestic debt (borrowings from Sijil Pelaburan, Institusi Bank, Syarikat Insurance and KWSP) has accelerated 63% RM 217 billion in 2006 to 371 billion in 2010.
THUS WHILST THE GOVERNMENT FOREIGN DEBT IS STABLE, THE GOVERNMENT DOMESTIC DEBT IS RISING IN AN UNSUSTAINABLE LEVEL, WHATEVER SAVINGS BY CITIZENS MAY BE BEING SQUANDERED AWAY FEEDING CRONIES AND BUILDING UNAFFORDABLE HOUSING AND HIGHWAYS.
MALAYSIA MAY BE ENJOYING SUCH SPLURGING NOW BUT WHEN THE CRUNCH COMES THERE WILL BE AGONY AS STRIKES NOW IN GREECE, EGYPT, SPAIN AND EVEN UK PORTENDS.
THE CITIZENS ARE NOT TO BE BLAMED BECAUSE THEY ARE CONTENT TO ACCEPT GOODIES FROM THE RULERS IN GOOD TIMES NOT REALIZING THAT FOR EVERY 10 SEN GIVEN THE POLITICIANS AND THEIR CRONIES HAVE STOLEN 90 SEN AND GRADUALLY THE NATION IS BLED DRY AND WHATEVER DEBTS THE NATION OWES IS PASSED ON TO THE POPULATION TO REPAY AND THEY START TO SCREAM WHEN THEY TOO WERE CULPABLE FOR BEING DECEIVED AND INDIFFERENT.
Not so healthy after all:
Many are obsessed with their health and are meticulous in what they eat to preserve their health and therefore their lives here.
To this end, they prefer organically grown foods and apparently organically grown sprouts are popular in Germany and it is this organically grown sprout that is the likely cause of the E coli outbreak that killed many.
IT TURNS OUT THAT WHAT YOU THINK IS HEALTHY, WILL PRESERVE YOUR LIFE, THESE ORGANIC SPROUTS, CAN BE DEADLY FOR YOUR HEALTH SO WHAT IS THE POINT OF EATING HEALTHY OBSESSIVELY WHEN YOU CANNOT BE CERTAIN IT HAS PROLONGED YOUR LIFE BY EVEN A TINY BIT. WHATEVER PROLONGATION CAN BE WIPED OUT IN AN INSTANT BY CONSUMING SUCH A DEADLY MICROBE.
ALL THOSE WHO ARE METICULOUS ABOUT WHAT THEY EAT ARE NOT ONLY WASTING THEIR TIME BUT THEY ARE ROBOTS ENSLAVED TO THEIR OBSESSIONS HEADING FOR TORMENT BECAUSE THE ENDPOINT OF DELUSION IS INSANITY.
IF YOU ARE NOT CERTAIN WHAT YOU DO (THE MEASURES YOU TAKE AND WHAT YOU EAT) WORKS TO PRESERVE YOUR LIFE AND YOU STILL DO IT, YOU ARE COURTING DOUBT AND UNCERTAINTY AND EVEN IF IT TURNS OUT THAT IT WORKS, YOU ARE HEADED FOR MAD DOUBT AND UNCERTAINTY FOR PARTAKING OF WHAT YOU DID NOT KNOW AS TRUE.
WHAT JESUS SAID BELOW IS ABSOLUTE, HAS NO EXCEPTIONS THAT YOU SHALL NOT CARE FOR WHAT YOU SHALL EAT:
"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his span of life? (IF YOU CANNOT ADD ONE CUBIT AND YET YOU DO IT, YOU ARE PRACTICING CONTROLLED INSANITY THAT ENDS IN UNCONTROLLABLE INSANITY)
The dangerous GDP debt illusion:
Malaysia’s foreign debt is said to be RM RM221,741million, its domestic debt is 371 billion in 2010. Malaysia’s GDP in 2009 according to the World Bank is US192 billion.
The world with wrong understanding may deem such massive debt levels manageable or ‘comfortable’ when it may be the case that such high level of debts is dangerous potentially ruinous.
It is especially dangerous in Malaysia’s case because 40% of the GDP is due to oil and gas and with its particularly finite resources that is said to run out soon, suddenly a big slice of Malaysia’s GDP may be wiped out leaving Malaysia’s debts even harder to manage.
In the same way, Singapore and China’s ‘stellar’ growth in GDP may be illusory and dangerous if a substantial part of the GDP is the value of booming construction which with a downturn in construction or housing construction may severely diminish GDP.
THUS THE WORLD MAY BE IN A MAKE BELIEVE WORLD OF WEALTH, ITS GDP CAN SHRINK DRASTICALLY OVERNIGHT WHILST ITS TOWERING DEBTS REMAIN AND THEN IT IS CHECKMATE, YOU HAVE TO JUMP OFF THE SKYSCRAPER YOU BUILT SO MAGNIFICENTLY.
Close up Mercury is looking less boring:
Mercury is Mercury, it is neither boring nor interesting and it is the person’s false perception that makes it boring or interesting. Furthermore, boring and interesting is about the blind meaningless stirring of a person’s mental force to be attracted (interesting) or repulsed (boring).
This is a NYT headline and the person and readers think what is said is meaningful when it is senseless, why should Mercury stir anyone’s mental force to be interested or bored and of what use and meaning is it to stir one’s mental force?
TO PERCEIVE MERCURY AS BORING IS A WRONG INDISCRIMINATE ATTITUDE. IT IS A PERCEPTION THAT IS WRONG THAT IS MEMORIZED AND THEN THE PERSON ALWAYS PERCEIVES MERCURY PREJUDICALLY AS BORING, SUCH A PERSON IS A PREJUDICED MAN NOT AN OPEN MAN.
Default by Greece ‘Almost Certain’: Greenspan
How come Greenspan can see so clearly now to pronounce Greece’s default almost certain when he did not see the Lehman induced collapse in 2009?
The answer is because he is self-serving, he has vested interests not to see the looming world financial crisis and now he has no vested interests not to see Greece’s imminent collapse.
It is bankers through their reckless activities abetted by politicians who brought national economies like Ireland and Greece to their knees and rather than let them fail politicians have
Ministers feeding big time at the trough?
Quote: Lately, Rosmah Mansor, the wife of Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak was again in the spotlight, together with her husband for alleged misuse of public funds. Rosmah, members of her family and an entourage of over 200 people, ostensibly termed officials, combined an official trip with the wedding of Rosmah and Najib’s daughter.
In the last week, Tourism Minister Dr Ng Yen Yen was alleged to have spent RM1.8 million to set up a Facebook page, which she has since denied and said instead that the money had been spent on a full social media branding campaign.Yen Yen is not new to controversy either, for she is a politician who seems unable to shake off her image as a big-time spender. She chalked up a hefty travel bill of RM5 million in three months, ostensibly “promoting Malaysian tourism” by going on a worldwide overseas junket.
Yen Yen can’t have forgotten the humiliation in Parliament, last year, when she was called a “tourist minister” rather than the tourism minister.
So, no summer then:
There are some people who are in the habit of adding a then at the end of what they say, “So you will be watching the Olympics on TV then”.
The ‘then’ serves no meaningful purpose, it is to denote questioning what is reality and so it is a form of practicing ‘doubt and uncertainty’ that according to the Buddha is one of three lower fetters to future woe.
It is not an accident why some people are fond of adding ‘then’, if is a conditioned saying and they are speaking robotically by rehash.
THE REASON WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE IN THE HABIT OF ADDING ‘THEN’ TO WHAT THEY SAY IS BECAUSE THEY ARE REHASHING OR ROBOTS AND THAT IS ALWAYS WOR.
‘THEN’ IS TO QUESTION WHAT DOES NOT NEED QUESTIONING AND THAT MEANS NO ACCEPTING OR DOUBT AND UNCERTAINTY THAT IS NOT HARMLESS BUT IS A FETTER TO FUTURE WOE.
IF SOMETHING IS, WHAT IS THERE TO THEN OR NOT THEN? THUS IT IS SILLY RATHER THAN FULL OF MEANING THAT THE DELUDED FOOL PERCEIVES.
‘THEN’ IS FOR SHOW, TO BE NICE RATHER THAN MEANINGFUL AND IT IS CONTROLLED INSANITY THAT ENDS IN UNCONTROLLABLE INSANITY.
What they are talking about that they and readers realize is false logic that ends in mad logic.
WHAT OBAMA HOLDS IS THE PRESIDENCY AND THE PRESIDENCY IS WHAT REPUBLICANS ARE DESIROUS OF WINNING.
THE TRUE REASON FOR WINNING THE PRESIDENCY OF THE USA IS THAT YOU HAVE CERTAIN IDEAS OF HOW TO RUN THE COUNTRY THAT YOU WANT TO OFFER THE NATION AND IT IS UP TO THE ELECTORATE TO CHOOSE YOU IN PREFERENCE OVER OBAMA. THUS IT IS MAD IF YOUR PURPOSE TO RUN FOR PRESIDENCY IS TO BEAT OBAMA OR FOR IDEOLOGICAL PURPOSES. THE PURPOSE FOR RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENCY IS YOU WANT TO RUN THE COUNTRY IN A CERTAIN WAY, TO PUT YOURSELF TO SERVE YOUR COUNTRY NOT BEATING OBAMA OR FOR IDEOLOGY.
One million signature campaigns:
Mohd Nazir Hashim and his wife Nurizwarina Ariffin with their three-month-old son Mohd Ikram Zikry putting their signatures in support of the 'One Million Signatures' campaign which was launched at Jalan Masjid India in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday
All those who organize and participate in such signature campaigns are participating in something senseless that leads to future woe not safety.
There is no need to petition for this or that, lend your support for this and that, it falls on deaf ears in most cases and even if they are heeded that is the wrong reason to do what is petitioned (because of popular demand, not because it is the right thing to do).
YOU DON’T NEED A MILLION SIGNATURES TO SHOW WHAT IS PETITIONED IS GOOD, IT ONLY SHOWS IT IS POPULAR (NOT NECESSARY, SOME OF THOSE WHO SIGN MAY BE IDIOTS). THUS MILLION SIGNATURE PETITIONING IS FALSE LOGIC THAT JUST BECAUSE SO MANY DEMAND IT, IT MUST BE RIGHT OR AGREED WITH. IF SOMETHING IS RIGHT, IT DOES NOT NEED SO MANY SIGNATURES TO SHOW IT IS RIGHT.
BY PETITIONING YOU ARE TRYING TO EXERT PRESSURE FOR OTHERS TO ACCEDE TO YOUR DEMANDS AND IN MOST CASES IT FALLS ON DEAR EARS OR IS FUTILE, EVEN IF IT IS HEEDED, THAT IS THE WRONG REASON FOR DOING IT. THE CORRECT REASON FOR DOING SOMETHING IS IF IT IS MEANINGFUL AND FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PEOPLE.
IN WHATEVER SITUATIONS PETITIONED IT IS A QUESTION OF WHETHER THOSE PETITIONED CAN AFFORD TO CARRY OUT THE PETITION OR IF IT IS TRULY BENEFICIAL NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF OTHERS AND IF WHAT IS PETITIONED IS TRULY TO THE BENEFIT OF THE PEOPLE IT SHOULD NOT REQUIRE ANY PETITIONING FOR AUTHORITIES TO IMPLEMENT, IF IT REQUIRES PETITIONING THEN THE AUTHORITIES ARE LACKADAISICAL OR BAD AND WHAT IS THE POINT OF PETITIONING AUTHORITIES THAT ARE BAD?
PUTRAJAYA: Malaysia should explore the vast trade potential with the African nations, particularly through projects under the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP).
“TAP INTO THE AFRICAN MARKET’ CAN ONLY EMANATE FROM THE MOUTH OF SOMEONE AVARICIOUS WHO IS NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE SUBSTANCE OF ANY VENTURE, ONLY FOR THE GAIN INVOLVED. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT THE MARKET IS AFRICAN OR ASIAN OR WHATEVER, SO LONG AS THERE IS MONEY TO BE MADE, ‘TAP INTO THAT MARKET’ IN THE NAME OF MAKING MONEY. WHERE THERE IS MONEY TO BE MADE, THERE SHALL WE BE IS THE CREDO OF THE GREEDY HEARTLESS MAN.
The insanity of petitions:
You and this world see nothing wrong even meaning in petition when it may be senseless, the way to woe.
By getting people to sign a petition, you are trying to demonstrate how popular a petition is, the support it has.
THE POPULARITY OF SOMETHING IS NOT THE TRUE OR CORRECT REASON FOR DOING SOMETHING, JUST BECAUSE A MILLION PEOPLE SUPPORT IT DOES NOT MAKE IT CORRECT SO WHY ARE ORGANIZING PETITION? IF SOMETHING IS TRUE OR CORRECT, IT DOES NOT NEED PETITIONS, MILLIONS OF SIGNATURES, POINTING IT OUT SUFFICES AND IF THE AUTHORITIES ARE NOT GOING TO ACCEDE TO IT FOR VESTED REASONS YOU CAN PETITION FOREVER AND THEY WILL NEVER GIVE IN JUST AS GHADDAFI WILL NOT LEAVE NO MATTER WHAT PETITIONS.
Poor vision is itself suffering:
It is in the nature of things that if a being cannot see clearly, what is seen is blurred, he will automatically struggle to focus and if he cannot focus because of significant structural defects, he will always strain or use additional force to see and that is always stressful, suffering.
Now that my lens for both eyes have been reduced in power I am aware of how easeful it is that I now see compared to the chronic strain of the past. I effortlessly clearly see details so why would I want to strain to see?
A BEING CAN BE ENDOWED WITH POOR EVEN VERY POOR UNCORRECTABLE EYESIGHT AND THAT IS ALWAYS SUFFERING, TO BE BORN BLIND IS THAT ULTIMATE POOR VISION AND SO THERE ARE MANY AVENUES FOR SUFFERING, NOT FOR ONE DAY BUT EVEN A LIFETIME. THE FOOLISH ARE HEEDLESS BUT THE WISE AS THE BUDDHA TAUGHT SEE DANGERS IN THE SLIGHTEST OF FAULTS LEARNS AND TRAINS HIMSELF TO BEHAVE IMPECCABLY SO THAT HE DOES INCUR DEBTS TO BE REPAID BY EVEN A MOUNTAIN OF SUFFERING ACCORDING TO THE BUDDHA.
That’s the simple truth:
Truth is truth, there is nothing simple or complicated or marvellous or anything about it and so anyone who speaks of truth being simple is falsifying and perceives falsely what is not simple as simple.
TRUTH IS WHATEVER THAT HAS HAPPENED, WHATEVER DID NOT HAPPEN IS FALSE AND THAT HAS NOTHING SIMPLE OR COMPLICATED.
Heading for insanity:
(Picture shows many policemen standing in a pyramid on top of each other formation riding on a bike in a parade)
You are impressed and many are impressed or do not know whether what they see is meaningful or meaningless but it does not mean God is impressed like you.
IT MAY BE AN ABOMINATION IN THE SIGHT OF GOD RATHER THAN INSPIRING TO GOD WHAT IS DEPICTED.
THEY ARE DOING A LOT OF WORK AND RISKING INJURY EVEN DEATH DOING WHAT THEY ARE DOING WHICH ACHIEVES NO USEFUL FRUIT AND IS ONLY FOR SHOW TO IMPRESS FOOLS. WITHOUT PRACTICE THEY CANNOT DO THIS AND SO WHAT IS DONE IS REHASHED ROBOTICALLY AND THEY ARE ALL ROBOTS.
ONLY ROBOTS CAN DO THIS AND ONLY THOSE WHO ARE THEMSELVES ROBOT WILL FIND SUCH FEATS MARVELLOUS OR INSPIRING.
BECAUSE IT IS MEANINGLESS THEY ARE PRACTICING CONTROLLED INSANITY TO IMPRESS OTHERS THAT WILL END IN UNCONTROLLABLE INSANITY FOR THEM AND WHOEVER APPLAUDS CONTROLLED INSANITY ARE THEMSELVES HEADED FOR INSANITY.
Steven Spielberg abusing his power asking for the chop:
It is an abuse of Spielberg’s power to fire an actress because she made a derogatory comment about something he did not like.
The correct reasons for firing her is if she is incompetent, incapacitated or shirking her duties, not doing her job.
YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO DO WHAT YOU WISH, FIRING ANOTHER ON WHIM OR FANCY, IF YOU ABUSE YOUR POWERS YOU DO NOT REALIZED YOU WILL HAVE TO REPAY IN FUTURE SUFFERING WHICH CAN BE FAR MORE PAINFUL AND EVERLASTING THAN YOU EVER DREAMT POSSIBLE
The 25-year-old actress was dumped and replaced by Victoria Secrets model Rosie Huntingdon-Whitley after she compared the film's director, Michael Bay, to Hitler in a magazine interview.
The comparison angered Spielberg, who is executive producer of the Transformers series and deadly serious when it comes to Nazis.
The comparison angered Spielberg, who is executive producer of the Transformers series and deadly serious when it comes to Nazis.
Bay revealed for the first time he was told to get rid of Fox.
"You know the Hitler thing. Steven (Spielberg) said, fire her right now," he said ahead of the premiere of Transformers 3.
Why Germany must exit the euro
Germany - not Greece - has 'destabilised the euro area and is one of the biggest road-blocks to its ultimate recovery.
People think they speak great sense and they read great sense when it is all deluded speculation without understanding the true nature of the problem.
It is not Germany or Greece being in the euro that is the cause of the current deadly financial crisis but it is the abuses of lending and living beyond means that is the cause and so neither Greece nor Germany leaving is the answer to the problem.
If you have mangled your car, no amount of repair can return your car to the previous condition and it a form of cheating and taking the easy way out that shifts the losses on others for either Germany or Greece to exit the euro.
The possible rationale for Germany exiting the euro is so that the euro can plunge and with its plunge, countries like Greece will be competitive in its exports and so export itself out of its debts. There is no guarantee that a cheap euro will mean great increases in exports, as UK is demonstrating with a 25% devaluation of the pound. Further, speculators may push Germany’s DM to excessively high levels that may cripple Germany’s exports or force its manufacturers to offshore bases that may cause damage to Germany.
ALL THESE GERMANY OR GREECE LEAVING ARE FANCIFUL EASY WAY OUT CHEATING SOLUTIONS THAT MAY NOT WORK AND HAVE SERIOUS REPERCUSSIONS. IT IS NOT GERMANY OR GREECE’S BEING IN THE EURO THAT IS THE CAUSE OF THE CRISIS BUT IT IS CRASS ABUSE OF THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM, IRRESPONSIBLE LENDING AND BORROWING THAT IS THE CAUSE AND NOW PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR PAIN FREE SOLUTIONS THAT HOPEFULLY SHIFT THE SHIT ON SOMEONE ELSE.
HE THINKS HE IS VERY CLEVER ARGUING HIS VIEW BUT IF HE IS DELUDED, HE IS HEADED FOR TORMENT.
HE THINKS HE IS VERY CLEVER ARGUING HIS VIEW BUT IF HE IS DELUDED, HE IS HEADED FOR TORMENT.
How do I know it won’t work?
There may be those out of hostility (ill will) and foolishness will riposte, asking me, “How would you know Germany leaving the euro will not work?”
First of all, let me ask you, “How do you know Germany leaving euro is the answer, will work?” If you agree you don’t know, it may not work then you are foolishly undertaking an action, causing Germany to leave the euro without knowing it is true or good.
WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT YOU SAY OR DO IS TRUE OR GOOD AND YOU SAY OR DO IT, YOU ARE COURTING DOUBT AND UNCERTAINTY SAYING OR DOING IT EVEN IF YOU TURN OUT CORRECT, SO EVEN IF GERMANY LEAVING EURO ‘SAVES THE DAY’ YOU ARE HEADED FOR SUFFERING. ONLY WHEN A PERSON SAYS OR DOES THINGS HE KNOWS IS TRUE AND GOOD WILL HE HEAD FOR FUTURE SAFETY.
You may say there is a crisis and we must act, venture into uncharted territory, try everything at our disposal to correct.
CRISIS IS NOT A REASON FOR TAKING RISK, TRYING OUT ANYTHING AT OUR DISPOSAL, BETTER YOU DIE IN WOE AND HEAD FOR SAFETY THAN YOU SAVE THE DAY BY TAKING RISK AND HEAD FOR WOE LATER.
IF MANKIND HAD ONLY ACTED ON WHAT THEY KNOW IS TRUE AND GOOD, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE THAT GREECE AND THE EURO WOULD BE IN THE IMPASSE TODAY, PAST FOLLY AND ITS BITTER FRUITS IS NOT REASON TO TAKE ANOTHER GAMBLE BY GERMANY LEAVING THE EURO WHICH IS AN ENGINEERED FALSE, CHEATING SOLUTION.
Crisis is not a reason to gamble:
Crisis or urgency is NEVER a reason to take risks or gambles (eg Germany leaving the euro), in fact if there is a serious crisis it is of utmost importance you fully understand the nature of the crisis, its causes and therefore cures and if you know the cures if it exists, it is never gambling or taking risks.
CRISIS BEHOVES YOU TO FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT THE CRISIS IS, WHAT ITS CAUSES ARE AND WHAT THE CURES ARE IF EXIST, NOT GAMBLE AND TAKE RISKS BY GRASPING AT STRAWS OR CAUSING GERMANY TO LEAVE THE EURO WITHOUT KNOWING IT WILL WORK.
FIRST OF ALL HAVE YOU RECTIFIED ALL THE ABUSES, CORRUPTION AND LIVING BEYOND YOUR MEANS THAT PRECIPITATED THIS CRISIS? WITHOUT ELIMINATING ALL THE CAUSAL FACTORS YOU ARE ONLY AT BEST POSTPONING THE RECKONING BY GERMANY LEAVING THE EURO.
IT IS NOT GERMANY IN THE EURO THAT IS THE CAUSE OF THE CRISIS AND SO GERMANY LEAVING THE EURO IS NOT THE CURE.
WHOEVER GAMBLES HAS ALREADY LOST BIG TIME:
THE BUDDHA NEVER TAKES GAMBLES, HE ONLY SAYS OR DOES WHAT IS TRUE & GOOD, EVEN IF IT IS UNPLEASANT TO OTHERS HE HAS THE SENSE OF TIME TO SAY OR DO WHAT MAY BE UNPLEASANT TO OTHERS BUT IS TRUE AND GOOD.
GAMBLING OR DOING OR SAYING SOMETHING WITHOUT KNOWING IT IS TRUE AND GOOD FOR SELF AND OTHERS IS THE RECIPE FOR CERTAIN FUTURE SUFFERING EVEN OF A TERRIBLE NATURE EVEN IF YOU WIN, EG YOU GAMBLE AT THE CASINO AND WIN BIG TIME, BECAUSE IT IS EMBRACING DOUBT AND UNCERTAINTY, EMBRACING RISKS THAT NO MATTER HOW LUCKY YOU ARE, WILL ONE DAY KILL YOU BOTH LITERALLY OR FIGURATIVELY.
THE WISE PERSON IS NOT GREEDY FOR ANYTHING AND HE STICKS ONLY TO THINGS HE SEES AND KNOWS IS TRUE, HE NEVER TAKES RISKS, NEVER GAMBLES OR GUESSES AND TAKES ACTIONS BASED ON THOSE GUESSES. WHAT CAN BE KNOWN (EG THAT THIS PERSON IS DANGEROUS, CANNOT BE TRUSTED) IS FAR GREATER THAN PEOPLE CONCEDE AND IT IS NOT A MATTER OF GUESSING THAT A WISE PERSON STEERS CLEAR OF AN EVIL MAN BECAUSE HE SEES AND KNOWS NOT GUESSES HE IS EVIL.
EVEN IF YOU GAMBLE AND WIN, IT IS A ROBOTIC PROGRAM TO GAMBLE AND YOU ARE TRAINING YOURSELF TO EXPOSE YOURSELF TO RISK, TO DO OR SAY THINGS WITHOUT KNOWING AND THAT IS A RECIPE FOR CERTAIN FUTURE DIFFICULTIES, TROUBLE AND EVEN TORMENT.
Malaysia’s North Sea Oil:
Just like UK’s North Sea oil has dwindled in recent years as a result of wells running dry, Malaysia which is even more dependent on oil and gas for revenue may be facing menopause, starting to experience drying taps and that spells trouble for the ruling elite and can end in social unrest.
Quote: “Azhar told us (US officials) that Malaysian Oil &Gas reserves are not large and are running out soon. (Note: Conoco Philips Malaysia confirmed that without new discoveries, Malaysian oil production will decline at approximately 10 per cent per year, from 550,000 bpd in 2008 to roughly 490,000 bpd in 2009 and 450,000 bpd in 2010.)“Azhar noted that revenues from Petronas accounted for 45 per cent of the GOM budget last year and stated that the GOM is over-reliant on Petronas to fund its operations,” said the document classified by the embassy’s then economic counsellor, Matt Matthews.
Malaysia’s oil production appears to be declining:
Statistics appear to indicate oil production menopause may be coming so we may find out soon if it is Malaysia boleh or minyak boleh. Not just in Malaysia but all over the world it is mankind who digs himself into a hole or depression and the earth that comes to its rescue but this time the earth may not answer the call to rescue mankind.
Oil - production: 693,700 bbl/day (2009 est.)
| Year | Oil - production | Rank | Percent Change | Date of Information |

Murray battles through under the roof:
This is a BBC site headline and it exhibits false logic that escapes the attention of those who have similarly false logic.
The substance of the matter is Murray ‘battles through’, under the roof (which was closed because of rain) is beside the point, not connected.
Murray struggles to get through is what happened, not battles through.
The gist of the matter is ‘Murray struggled through’, that he did so under the closed roof because of rain at Wimbledon is another matter which should not be lumped together but spoken separately.
Jesus is the crown prince:
Just as kings have crown princes designated to succeed them as king, in the same way, Jesus is the crown prince designated to succeed the brother and just as Prince Harry is the brother of Prince William is in line to succeed Charles, the Holy Spirit is Jesus’ brother.
Whereas here crown princes plot to overthrow even kill their fathers and siblings plot to usurp the crown prince, there is no such evil thoughts in heaven nor is it possible to kill the king as it is here.
Thus Jesus said, all the Father has is his. Jesus said he came as ransom and his Father sent him. Whilst beings here, even those who consider themselves good or spiritual are attached to this world and find it hard if not impossible to abandon this world, even when shown the way out of the torment that beset them in their lives here, they fail to understand and remain rooted in this world, those who are sons of light, residents in heaven would not come to this terrible world of cut throat murderers. By themselves they will never discover the path out of death and suffering and it requires those who are not deluded to come from heaven and face persecution to teach them the way out of their torment and so it is that Jesus came as ransom.
Why Malaysia cannot:
It is a fact not speculation that Malaysia tak boleh or cannot. Why is that so?
If Malaysia can then the proportion to its GDP contributed by oil and gas would not be so large as 40%. The fact that oil and gas contribute 40% of the GDP even when Malaysia is not a big oil producer indicates lack of ability. Further Malaysia is heavily dependent on other natural resources like oil palm, rubber, timber for income. It is these that are the breadwinners that the country then splurges on useless activities like housing, roads and other infrastructures that are exorbitantly priced and wasteful.
And now that oil and gas may be starting to decline, Malaysia is facing an unpalatable reckoning with its ability to truly stand on its own feet failing which there may be much belt tightening to be done and it is likely if not certain it will be found wanting.
Only a pointless life leads to pointless death:
Death is pointless because it serves no true purpose, is unnecessary and does not need to happen, it is suffering of a serious (deadly) nature, never fun nor is it easy and it is blameworthy (the person is to be blamed for causing his own death).
DEATH DOES NOT COME NATURALLY, BLAMELESSLY TO THE PERSON BUT DEATH COMES UNNATURALLY AND THE PERSON IS TO BE BLAMED FOR HIS OWN DEATH. IF HE WAS BLAMELESS HE WOULD NOT DIE.
The person who thinks death is mandatory, happens to everyone, blameless, is worth it, will not be so bad has wrong understanding that is the way to hell or the animal womb.
Death is pointless and it is because people’s lives here are pointless, worthless that they end up in death that is preceded by terminal suffering and leads even to an eternity of suffering that is as vast as the oceans building a pile of skeletons as high as a mountain.
Death is unnecessary because eternal life even for 60,000 eternities or world cycles is possible for all beings here.
Death is pointless because it achieves no purpose, serves no purpose, there is nothing to be gained by dying which is the result of the force of death overcoming a being’s weakened resistance as a result of lifelong subjecting himself to abuse to finally permanently snuff out his life here.
It is because people’s lives here are pointless (meaningless) that they end in pointless (meaningless) death.
Their lives are totally pointless because they are constantly robotically rehashing for show, radiating force in their styles (prolonging, changing speed and strength of force) that harms themselves and others with deadly stress, restlessness and inability to concentrate. What sustains them here is greed, ill will (hate) and delusion and all these are pointless, meaningless or false.
EVEN IF YOU AND EVERYONE CANNOT ACHIEVE IT, WILL NOT ACHIEVE IT, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR YOU AND ALL BEINGS TO OBTAIN ETERNAL LIFE BY TRULY CLEANSING THEMSELVES OF SIN AND FALSITY, BY SHEDDING YOURSELF OFF YOUR EVIL, HARMFUL MEANINGLESS STYLE. IF YOU REFUSE TO DO IT THEN YOUR LIFE HERE IS POINTLESS AND WILL LEAD TO A POINTLESS DEATH AND YOU ARE AS JESUS SAID, UNWORTHY OF HIM, WORTHLESS OR USELESS.
The first higher state of mind:
The first higher state of mind is simply the happy state of a mind effortlessly freed from stress, restlessness and distraction as a result of shedding his style or his automatic constant use of force to prolong (eg syllables, units of motion), change speed and strength (loudness).
THE FIRST HIGHER STATE OF MIND IS SIMPLE THE STATE OF MIND FREED FROM STRESS, RESTLESSNESS AND DISTRACTION AS A RESULT OF SHEDDING ONE’S STYLE OR CONSTANT MAD USE OF FORCE TO STRETCH SYLLABLES, CHANGE SPEED AND LOUDNESS THAT IS FOR SHOW TO IMPRESS AND PLEASE OTHERS.
AND IT IS THIS FIRST HIGHER STATE OF MIND THAT GIVES THAT BEING ONE AGE OR ETERNITY IN HEAVENLY BLISS.
Why Greek default may blow apart the world’s finance:
The reason why Greek default may be fatal is because of the trillions in credit default derivatives that with Greece’s default may be fatally destabilized to have worldwide repercussions. If Greece defaults, claims may be made for payment that issuers of the CDS cannot fulfil leading to knock defaults.
IF THERE ARE NO DERIVATIVES OR INSURANCES AGAINST DEFAULTS THAT MAY BECOME LIABLE FOR PAYMENT THAT ISSUERS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO FULFILL, A GREEK DEFAULT MAY NOT BE SO DANGEROUS.
IT MAY BE BECAUSE OF THESE EVIL DERIVATIVES RIDING ON THE DEFAULT THAT IS HIDDEN FROM THE PUBLIC THAT A GREEK DEFAULT MAY HAVE WORLD WIDE REPERCUSSIONS.
What is a default?
Default occurs when a company, government or individual is unable to make an interest payment on an outstanding debt or does not have sufficient money to repay a loan or any other financial obligation that has reached maturity.
Will credit default swaps be triggered if Greece defaults?
The answer may seem obvious, but in the legally grey world of the multi-trillion dollar CDS market this is not clear. First of all, a default and a "credit event", the legal term for the process that would trigger CDS payouts, are legally distinct. It is extremely unlikely Greece will declare an all-out default on its sovereign debt and the government, with IMF and EU support, will likely agree a "restructuring" deal. Deciding whether this constitutes a default is the job of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA), the representative body of the derivatives market that designs CDS contracts.
How will this work?
The first step in deciding whether a credit event has occurred will be a request by an investor or interested party to the ISDA Determinations Committee asking for a judgment. In Europe, this committee comprises 10 banks, including Barclays, Goldman Sachs and UBS, whose representatives will together vote on whether a credit event has occurred. If they decide a credit event has not occurred then CDS will not pay out. This means that even if Greece does not declare default, ISDA could decide a credit event has occurred and CDS would pay out.
Is this significant?
As one trader said: "A CDS agreement is nothing more than a betting slip, ISDA can do what it likes." While the ratings agencies can issue opinions it will be the ISDA that ultimately decides and in that sense any investor that does not already understand CDS are not a direct exposure to a given debt security will get a wake-up call soon.
Greek crisis could cost UK £336bn: British exposure 'significantly underestimated'

Britain could be hit with losses of up to £366billion from the collapse of the Greek economy, it has emerged.
The potential devastation of banks and other City institutions would be equal to 24 per cent of our annual national output, or £14,640 for every family in the UK.
Ministers had claimed that British banks have 'only' £2.5billion of exposure to Greek government debt, while the Bank of England says the potential losses would be just £8billion.
But experts last night said that UK financial institutions are in far more danger than previously thought, because banks are tied up in complicated derivatives and insurance deals.
They warned that if Greece defaults on its debts the crisis could cause a series of dominoes to fall, with Portugal, Spain and Ireland heading to the wall in turn.
The Greek government last night faced a crunch confidence vote at its parliament in Athens.
Without a 'yes' there was no prospect of Greece enacting the £25billion of spending cuts and tax rises that EU finance ministers have demanded before granting a second bailout.
Meanwhile, David Cameron said the euro must not fail - because it would drag Britain's economy down with it.
In a slap-down to Boris Johnson and other Tories calling for the end of the single currency in its current form, he said: 'Britain suffers when the eurozone struggles. Forty per cent of our exports go to eurozone countries. Turbulence in the eurozone is not good for Britain.'
Experts accused ministers of underestimating the true scale of the risk to the UK, as Channel 4 News revealed that estimates of potential exposure range as high as £366billion.
Danny Gabay, of Fathom Financial Consulting, which calculated the figure using data from the Department of Business, said: 'It's not the direct loan that’s the problem, it's the derivatives of those loans which can go on to be multiples of the actual original size of the loan.
'London made a vast amount of money in the ten years before this crisis selling those loans. Those chickens may now be coming home to roost.'
'London made a vast amount of money in the ten years before this crisis selling those loans. Those chickens may now be coming home to roost.'
At the heart of the issue are credit default swaps - the same complex financial instruments that saw the sub-prime mortgage meltdown in the U.S. escalate into the global credit crunch.
They allow banks exposed to debt to take out insurance with other financial institutions to protect them from losses. They in turn sell the risk to others, meaning one debt can infect dozens of institutions.
Former Labour City minister Lord Myners accused Treasury minister Mark Hoban of giving 'numbers that significantly understate the truth' when he told MPs on Monday that British banks could lose $4billion - about £2.5billion.
But despite this, the Prime Minister yesterday made it clear that Britain would not contribute to a second Greek bailout through the EU. 'It would be quite wrong now to bring Britain into this bailout,' he said.
Instead, the UK will contribute around £1billion through its membership of the International Monetary Fund.
Mr Cameron's statements came as a report by the think-tank Open Europe predicted a third bailout will be needed to keep Greece solvent in the long-term.
A cat that barks:
This cat was caught by its owner barking like a dog and when it saw it was secretly being filmed it gradually reverted to a ‘meow’. This indicates that stereotypes of animals do not necessarily hold and cats or at least in isolated or special cases can bark.
This is in line with the Buddha’s teaching that all beings are capable of existing as animals, the Buddha himself had been a horse, lion, monkey and even tree. This is the site of the video:

US First Lady Michelle Obama pays tribute to apartheid victims on a visit to the South African township of Soweto.
Often when dignitaries visit exotic places, they say things that give the appearance they know the place well and are empathic when they know little or nothing and what they say is from their or their aides’ brushing up local knowledge. This is a form of deceit, of lying to give the impression the person knows the history of the place and is sympathetic.
PEOPLE INCLUDING DIGNITARIES SAY OR DO THINGS, NOT BECAUSE IT IS TRUE OR THEY MEAN IT BUT BECAUSE THEY MEAN TO FALSELY IMPRESS AND PLEASE, TO SHOW OFF THEY KNOW THE HISTORY OF THE PLACE THEY ARE VISITING AND SHARE THEIR STRUGGLES.
THERE IS NO REASON FOR HER TO PAY TRIBUTE JUST BECAUSE SHE IS VISITING THE PLACE EXCEPT FOR SHOW TO SHOW SHE IS AWARE OF LOCAL HISTORY AND SYMPATHETIC.
