Bad Karma

The way I am accumulating "negative" karma sometimes, I'll be bound to this hell forever - yippee!!! I have lots of friends here and heaven is pretty boring alone. I'll go in last. Before then I must play with my toys in paradise. Sign in to see full entry.

Thus Spoke Longchenpa

Comment for lack of comment ability

Religion - the choice

So, religious people of all the faiths. Which "explaining away" are you going to fall prey to: God is a mushroom: Amanita Muscaria God is the Sun: The Sun God is a delusion: Too many to mention I'm sure there will be more "historically correct and rationally sensible answers" out there in the world...

Paradise Lost

Throughout “written about” history, humans have been longing for paradise. Paradise always seems to be a remote lost place or state of being that we are forever trying to recover or return to.
