Maybe that's because you're an arbitrarily and inaccurately insulting
little prick.

You're the one insulting people. Imbecile - Hahahaha! You are so far
from buddhism that you have completely discredited yourself. Who gives
a flying fuck what you think of me? You've used me as an excuse to
avoid discussing buddhism. You lose, robert. Period. This isn't a
troll. You are completely incapable of carrying on a high level
discussion. It's really rather sad.

Bye? How ironic! lol

LOL!
An excellent rejoinder.
What I've been finding amusing here is that you quoted Hakuin
*dis*approvingly, and then Appledork comes along and scolds
you that he's already told it to you but that you don't respect
it when *he* says it! That is, 'dork thought you were citing
Hakuin *in agreement*!
Dharma Troll:
The "direct experience" talk is dogma, and an attempt to say "my
sect has the pipeline to the truth". It's nonsensical.
Robert:
I don't think it's an American problem. Hakuin is to blame.
Herbzet:
Whut?
Robert:
<Quotes Hakuin to show how he is "to blame" ;) >

I'm fully aware of the flow of discussion. When I said haikun was
right, I meant robert was wrong.

I'm afraid, Robert, that among all the self-righteous gibbering, 'dork has
a point here. You are his second strongest enabler here, after Jen. You
are his second-most reliable mark. You are reactive to his provocations,
though your reactivity goes on and off. It's pretty much 50-50, a
quite reasonable gamble for him.
He fairly reliably (50-50) has got your number.

Yes, you really are rather sad, and rather vacant.

what is your Appledog reaction ratio?
do you get to discount the reactions directed at all
the other posters in reaction to his posts to them?
they should be included since he sees them too
what does it cost you to give him what he wants?
what are you learning about yourself
by what you hold back? (content)
what are you learning about yourself
by why you need to interfere? (structure)
Appledogs ability to spin and project content can
be a priceless opportunity to reveal and
examine the egoic structures you own.
IF you can stomach the Awareness to look
in the mirror.
(keep your attention on you whilst you interact)
did Buddha downplay debate on egoic content
in favor of highlighting examining the egoic structures
that adhere themselves to content?
ZN :D
absolute permanent perfection overflowing without action
