The Jews are not demonstrating with their dead on the streets, yelling and chanting and asking for revenge; the Jews are not promoting brain washing the children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non-Muslims.


The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics; the Jews don't traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels.

The Jews don't have the economic strength of petroleum, nor the possibilities to force the world's media to see "their side" of the question.

Perhaps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.

Who is hearing?

Who is hearing?
Your physical being doesn’t hear,
Nor does the void.
Then what does?
Strive to find out.
Put aside your rational Intellect,
Give up all techniques.
Just get rid of the notion of self.

I am a Point of Light

AFFIRMATION OF A DISCIPLE

I am a point of light within a greater light.
I am a strand of living energy within the stream of Love divine.
I am a point of sacrificial fire, focused within the fiery Will of God.
And Thus I stand.

I am a way by which men may achieve.
I am a source of strength, enabling them to stand.
I am a beam of light, shining upon their way.
And thus I stand.

And standing thus revolve
And tread this way, the ways of men,
And know the ways of God.
And Thus I stand.

Give away

Is there really the desire to know love, or to know the experience of someone having an emotion over self? Is it a desire to be itself expended in doing that which may be helpful or constructive? This can be done, but it will require the losing of self, as has been indicated, in service for others.
. . . But arise to that consciousness that if ye would have life, if ye would have friends, if ye would have love, these things ye must expend. For only that ye give away do ye possess.

Remember the Sunset

Then, to be able to remember the sunset, to be able to remember a beautiful conversation, a beautiful deed done where hope and faith were created, to remember the smile of a babe, the blush of a rose, the harmony of a song--a bird's call; these are creative. For if they are a part of thyself, they bring you closer and closer to God.

Regret

"Regret for the things we did can
be tempered by time," he says, "It is regret for the things we did
not do that is inconsolable."

All Healing

Think on This ...
For all healing, mental or material, is attuning each atom of the body, each reflex of the brain forces, to the awareness of the divine that lies within each atom, each cell of the body.

perfect love

For perfect love casteth out fear, and fear can only be from the material things that soon must fade away.
And thus hold to the higher thought of eternity. For life is a continual experience.

Edgar Cayce Reading 1175-1

Be My People

. . for he that seeks the Lord must believe that He is, would they find Him; for one doubting has already builded that barrier that prevents the proper understanding, whether as to physical, mental or spiritual attributes, or spiritual aid, or mental aid, or physical aid; for that in faith sought for shall be thine, even as was given, "Be my people and I will be your God."

Edgar Cayce Reading 459-1

Mind is the builder

For mind is the builder and that which we think upon may become crimes or miracles. For thoughts are things and as their currents run through the environs of an entity's experience these become barriers or steppingstones, dependent upon the manner in which these are laid as it were. For as the mental dwells upon these thoughts, so does it give strength, power to things that do not appear. And thus does indeed there become that as is so oft given, that faith is the evidence of things not seen.

Edgar Cayce Reading 906-3

In "his" name

For as the heaven is His throne, the earth is His footstool, so may we at His feet learn, know, become aware of, the knowledge of His ways. For He is not past finding out. For is God, the Father, so far away that He answers our pleas, our prayers, as from afar? Rather is His presence felt when we become aware of His force, His power, His love; the knowledge of His presence in our lives, our experiences, our undertakings in His name.

Edgar Cayce Reading 262-95

Do Not Condemn Another

Know that only in Him, who may bring peace and harmony by or through the contacts--the thoughts of self as in relationship to the whole, may there be brought about those better relationships.
To continue to condemn only brings condemnation, then, for self. This does not mean that self's activity should be passive, but rather being constant in prayer--knowing and taking, knowing and understanding that he that is faithful is not given a burden beyond that he is able to bear, if he will put the burden upon Him that has given the promise, "I will be with thee; there shall not come that which shall harm thee, if thou will but put thy trust, thy faith in me."
. . . First make an analysis of self, of self's relationships, of the impelling influences that cause others to act in their manners in the present.
Do not condemn self, do not condemn another; but leave the activities that would bring about condemnation rather in His hands, who requireth at the hands of all that there be meted, "As ye would that should be done to thee, do ye even so to thy fellow man!"

the ego

Chuan Zhi Shakya
Undeniable Self, Deniable self
by Chuan Zhi Shakya, OHY
Presented October 4, 2005

"Daruma" by Kogaku Soen (1859-1917). Kogaku Soen was one of the first monks to bring Zen to the United States. He is well known for his brush paintings of Boddhidharma (known in Japan as Daruma).
"Self is the lord of self; what higher Lord could there be? When a man subdues well his self, he gains a mastery which is hard to obtain."

-- The Buddha
(Dhammapada, XII.4)

Those seeking to understand Chan often misunderstand the nature of ego transcendence, which is, itself, the Chan experience. While it's impossible to understand it from a purely intellectual vantage, a glimpse into its nature is possible, and with the right Chan practice, anyone can come to fully realize it.

To distinguish between the concept of ego-self and Buddha Self (the True Self - or ego-transcended Self), I will use the conventional lower case "s" when referring to the ego-self, and a capital "S" when referring to Buddha Self.

What is the nature of Self? In Chan, the answer is a spiritual one, dependent on self-reflection, and one that cannot come fully until we achieve a degree of spiritual awareness. In the secular domain, we can investigate Self in terms of what it is not - it is not the self we identify as our ego.

We all recognize the characteristics of ego - they manifest as arrogance, pride and conceit. While it's easy to see these characteristics in others, it's often difficult to see them within ourselves: when we look inward it's too painful to confront so we turn the other way and return to our usual ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. This is the immense power the ego has over us. The danger of succumbing to it is obvious: we, too, act in the way of an ego-dominated individual, convinced that our opinions are the right ones, that our experiences are more valid than another's, that our knowledge is more "correct." Turning away from self-reflection we become like those we admonish.

When we lose the ability, or courage, to self-reflect, our ego steps in for us; and the more we entrust to our ego, the stronger it becomes and the more distant we become from our Self. The result is all varieties of ego-centered convictions and behaviors, but most grievous is the loss of knowledge of who we are as human beings. And therein lies all the pain and suffering that comes when a spiritual life is neglected. Recognizing the ego for what it is, we can begin to let go of it.

The ego is first and foremost concerned about itself - it wants to be strong and dominant, and will manipulate us accordingly by engaging in deception to bend our Will to identify with it. When we identify ourselves with our thoughts and actions and beliefs (all ego-elements), in our minds we become that with which we identify. We are "a republican" or "a democrat" or a "religious person" or "a vegetarian" or "a nice person" or a "victimized person" or a "strong person" or a "spiritual person" or a "smart person" or a "sensitive person" …. We become the center of our known universe. And a very small universe it is. What we fail to recognize is how limiting this state of being really is.

The ego will present numerous roadblocks on our spiritual journey. The Buddha warned about this in the numerous stories he told (the Jataka tales are often attributed to him but may have much more ancient origins) and in his sayings, collectively referred to as the Dhammapada.

The challenge for the spiritual traveler is to detach from the notion that we are what we think we are. In reality, we are everything except what we think we are, and if we take this viewpoint we can begin to undermine our attachment to ego and its influence over us and begin to learn about the nature of our Real Self. Depending on the amount of effort we put into it, ego-transcendence will come fast or slow, but once it does, we will truly be followers of the Chan path.

Deny yourself your opinions. Deny yourself your beliefs. Neti! Neti! Not this! Not This! Negate all those things that you have formed attachments to, one-at-a-time. Do this during every waking moment, unrelentingly, and enlightenment will come quickly. The Buddha Self -- which is you -- will pierce the veils of that slippery autonomous phantasm we call ego.

Nothing to gain

Poems by Than Nguyen

Nothing there to gain.
Nothing there to lose.
No center nor vastness.
Accepting existence and non existence
Is the same as harmonizing within and without;
The same as rejecting no evilness and no goodness.
Leaving behind the terminology, one enters the true-self.
Where is the universe?
What is there to say?

Leave it be

The past is already past.
Don’t try to regain it.
The present does not stay.
Don’t try to touch it.

From moment to moment.
The future has not come;
Don’t think about it
Beforehand.

Whatever comes to the eye,
Leave it be.
There are no commandments
To be kept;
There’s no filth to be cleansed.

With empty mind really
Penetrated, the dharmas
Have no life.

When you can be like this,
You’ve completed
The ultimate attainment.
Layman P’ang (740-808)

He that expects nothing wont be disapointed

. . "I will not leave thee comfortless, but will come and enjoin thee in thy daily activities, thy daily service." This is the promise to every soul. If ye would make that promise thine own, then seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto thee. Let there be definite periods when ye look within self, cleansing the mind, the body, in such ways and manners and measures that seemeth that as ye would offer as thine offering unto the holy experiences that may be thine. For, he that expects nothing shall not be disappointed, but he that expects much--if he lives and uses that in hand day by day--shall be full to running over. For the love of the Father constraineth thee to keep thine counsel with those thou meetest day by day that thou mayest aid. Thus may the soul find expression. Thus may the life, the experience, that portion of life thou hast in this present experience become more and more beautiful, and the sunshine of thy love into the hearts and souls of those that are wondering, that are troubled because they find not the spirit of truth and life in their own lives, wilt come into those experiences of calling thee blessed in the name of the Father.

If a Soul Fails to Improve

Q) If a soul fails to improve itself, what becomes of it?
(A) That's why the reincarnation, why it reincarnates; that it may have the opportunity. Can the will of man continue to defy its Maker?

2006 is not off to a good start. Almost a million people were gathered

guts to take him out.


[Happy New Shirts 2006!]

We've decided to kick off the New Year with a slew of new shirts.
Celebrate
a Happy Fucking New Year with all sorts of fucking new shirts about
fucking.
We have shirts about orgies, dog fucking, and sucking yourself. Plus,
dirty
Jews, clean Brits,dead wives, free juicers, and all of your black
friends.

All of our new shirts are here:

[It's Not Easy Being Green, and That's Good]

With America losing The War on Drugs, Terror and even Christmas, it's
nice
to see we're winning The War on something: our environment.

Global warming is increasing, the oil reserves are drying up, and we
lose
another endangered species every five minutes. I could not be happier.
Destroying the environment is good.

Let me put it another way. Let's say Jessica Alba's ass is the Arctic
National Wildlife Refuge. Sure it looks perfect and pristine. But
honestly, how much better would it look if someone was tapping it, am I
right?

Global warming may lead to extreme weather. But extreme weather leads
to
extremely entertaining video. I never get tired of watching some shaky
amateur footage and hearing someone say, "Gee, maybe we should have
evacuated."just before they scream and the screen goes black. Plus,
in
spite of the cheesy disaster anthems, we often get a couple excellent
disaster relief concerts.

It's good to use up all of the oil now instead of leaving it for future
generations. You know they would squander it. Why should we deprive
ourselves of topless hot oil wrestling just so some future generation
can
fuel their jetpack to go to school? Let's find a new energy source
buried
in Arkansas, or some pushover country like Denmark.

Killing endangered species might seem wrong. But unless we kill them,
we're
never going to know if their blood contains the cure for cancer, or if
their
guts can make a better tennis racket, or if their liver tastes like a
bit of
heaven; smeared on a cracker with a dollop of creme fraiche.

Destroying the environment is progress. Anyone who disagrees better be
living naked in a cave. And I don't know what they're living on,
because
last time I checked you needed to kill something if you wanted to eat.
The
government scientists are never going to get off their asses and build
really cool dome houses on Mars, unless we completely devastate and use
up everything here on Earth.

So, climb into your SUV, light up your cigar, and drive down the street
to
pick up your teak end tables. And if on your way you see a rare grey
squirrel crossing the road, steer into him. Do your part.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Why are the American people on the whole determined to destroy and put
down
the religion of Islam.
Could it be that this beautiful religion makes you nervous?
Could it be that this beautiful religion has all the answers where
yours
could not give you a straight and true answer even if all your
religious
leaders tried?
You would not see a Muslim degrading the Christian religion and do you
know
why? Because we respect other religions and your prophets are our
prophets.

This is just to tell you please think carefully before you insult our
religion, because in doing that you are also insulting your prophets
who are
also part of our religion.

GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS

Regards,
Fermidha

(Editor's Note: You refer to me as sir/madam because you didn't know
who'd
be receiving this. I'm going to refer to you as sir/madam because your
name
is Fermidha, which sounds like some overly spiced food dish that will
leave
me howling on the toilet all night and yet provides no clue as to your
gender. So, to answer your question sir/madam, no one is out to destroy
your
religion. We're out to make money by selling shirts that only a
mentally
challenged caveman would think was powerful enough to bring down an
entire
religion. If shirts wielded that kind of magical power I'd be enjoying
a
good fuck in all 3 of my major orifices by solid gold penises, while
watching a panda fight an alligator for my amusement. Currently I can
only
afford 2 solid gold penises. Now go get angry while us regular folks
stay
perfectly calm and laugh. Oh, and try not to fly a plane into our
website.
And if Islam holds all of the answers, ask it where I left the extra
set of
keys to my beach house on Maui.)
