Re: Idealism, Materialism and Zen
Hello Hedge90, You're perfectly welcome to join the discussion as far as I'm concerned. In respect to the above, at no time in Buddhist practice is any sensory perception negated or suppressed.

Re: Idealism, Materialism and Zen
Hi jamesmorton, I know you were responding to Cleric, but I hope you don't mind if I also share my understanding.

Re: Why do we reincarnate without our memories?
Cleric, thanks for your descriptions. I still intend to respond in substance, but in the meantime I must pose a question to you. Don't take this is poking at you, because I'm just trying to make sense of things, but I'd like to know your thoughts about why, in your opinion, the kind of spiritual pra...

Re: Why do we reincarnate without our memories?
I've been eagerly waiting for the conclusion to your thoughts here. Are you able to provide the "great reveal"? The thread was going as a kind of dialog with Hedge so I intended to continue after I get a response but in case you're interested I'll continue - probably tomorrow. Apologies. ...

I'm looking for Bernardo's talk concerning his psychedelic experiences
I half-remember that some weeks ago I saw Bernardo share some podcast or talk or whatever in which he talks about his psychedelic experiences. I remember making a mental note of wanting to listen to it later, but now I can't find it anywhere. Can any of you help me out?

Re: New Year's recognitions (not resolutions)
Thank you for sharing. For me, well I had my first true mystical experience last year which changed my entire outlook on the world. It sparked a new interest in me concerning things I'd long abandoned as unknowable and therefore useless to think about. I also progressed a good deal on my way of free...
