Into a blinding darkness go they who worship action alone.

Into an even greater darkness go tho who worship meditation.

For it is other than meditation,
It is other than action.
This we have heard from the enlightened ones.

Meditation and action-
He who knows knows these two together,
through action leaves death behind and
through meditation gains immortality

Into a blinding darkness go they who idolize the absolute,
Into an even greater darkness go they who dote on the relative.

For it is other than the relative,
It is other than the absolute.
This we have heard from the enlightened ones.

Nice. I've only browsed the Upanishads but I've always enjoyed the little I've read.

The ones narrating the upanishads.


That is the whole
This is the whole

From Wholeness emerges wholeness
Wholeness coming from wholeness
Wholeness still remains

At the heart of this phenomenal world
Within all its changing forms
Dwells the unchanging

So, go beyond the changing
and, enjoying the inner,
cease to take for yourself
what to others are riches

Continuing to act in the world,
One may aspire to be 100*
Thus and thus only can a man be free
From the blinding influence of action

Unillumined indeed are those worlds clouded
By the blinding darkness of ignorance
Into this death sink all those who slay the self


*100 - The two zeros symbolize the absolute and the relative, the no. 1 their unity

the enlightened ones are the ones that all people had to come and offer sacrifices to and pray to and revere during the time that was written. There's quite a bit on the net about the histories of hinduism and such. How the priests vastly abused their power given to them by the people. Of course, this is why Jesus came down to tear down these barriers.

True. The vedas were the first books written by the hindu priests and were full of such nonsensical rituals, stories and rules etc, much like the bible(lol).

Thats the reason the upanishads are known as Vendanta - And end to vedas

They were supposed to end the stupidity of the vedas with their wisdom.

good point! The Bible shows the stupidity of men and religious leaders and also points to what has happened to them and what will happen to them for their stupidity. That's the main difference between yours and mine.

are you trying to confuse me with your stupidity?

Not really, just showing you how stupid your statements are by making similar ones that are just as meaningless

let's see, im gonna bash some gays on wednesday, continue my blatant racism, up the ante on my raging alcohol problems, perhaps physically assault various women and the elderly and not only take saturday as the sabbath, but also sunday because i want it all.

very interesting...and deeeep.

i did a lookie-loo and pulled up an interesting site i will revisit.

do you, personally, practice or follow a specific religion?

as evil as you act towards others, certainly shows the ineffectiveness of your views and religion.

Nope. I dont practice or follow a specific religion.....

passive aggressiveness is worse.

What's up deegs! You doing anything to raise the awareness of your worldview this week??

Nope. I dont practice or follow a specific religion.....

You seem to like to comment upon others views and religion, yet you have none yourself. That's like Ghandi commentating on MMA.

He doesn't have a clue and would be talking out the side of his neck.

You have been weighed, measured and found wanting.

In otherwords...checkmate.

Same time next year perhaps.

no, i just plan on arguing with 39 year old dumbasses

good luck with that. Maybe if you actually had some kind of facts then your arguements would be more inviting instead of just negative babble.

Gandhi had a mean sprawl.


If life was mma and religion was a martial art, then you are a 39 year old tai-chi practioner dreaming of getting the UFC belt. MCdojo fag.



edit: It's Gandhi and not ghandi you fucking gandu

dude, checkmate... you have been weighed, measured and found wanting.

When you produce one solitary scrap of proof for your viewpoint, then I will start to think you actually know what you are talking about.

Mela gu ka. :owned:

Yea they are, your mom told me so last night during pillow talk

She sucks a mean dick too, lot of throat action.

ha ha... I must have really got your panties in a bunch, since you can no longer be civil with me. I guess it's pretty much game over for you. Maybe you can go beat up your little brother, then you can calm down and come back and have a decent debate... hmmm.

Wow, I'm back in gradeschool again.

xcept68, what is up with you this week? You've been trying to antagonize everyone. Are you just crashing and burning before leaving the shoes, or have you had a shit week in real life?

not really. I'm changing jobs on monday. So it's actually a good week. But I am merely responding to Mahakashyap the same manner as he is to me.

unfortunately, my work server blocks all your cute little images you send. I have to type in the weblink into google search just to see what they are. :(

So what's goin on in your Bible belt?

When I change jobs on monday. I may not even be back in here to chat. So today is your last day to ask me biblical questions.
