Friend Lilithu,
The goal of human kind is to go back to its source which ever way it happens.

n.b. you have changed your avatar. Last one depicted balance; is this an american dream with the stars and stripes on the persons suit? or a chaotic state?

ARE YOU MARRIED?

Yes, I suppose it does represent a chaotic state. I chose it as a reminder of such.

I am glad that you think the last one depicted balance. The golden structure upon which the figure was sitting is the symbol for Unitarian Universalism - the flaming chalice. It represents the divine spark within each of us. In Buddhist terms, our "Buddha-nature."

Yes. I'm married to the coolest man in the world - and his name is Steve. And we are parents to four children.




Peace,

Friend M.S.,
The reason for the question was obvious; its about attachment.
Marriage is an attachment.
Your response.

Friend Liluthu,
Existence / life / etc. has three stages.
Creation, preservation and destruction. Choas would mean destruction. Without destruction obviously the new cannot come.
Each meditator goes through these stages internally everyday. The mind knows only the past or the future and meditation is all about PRESENT which is only possible by destroying YESTERDAY [mentally] bringing the present in focus.
Beg to differ on the point of UNITARIAN UNIVERSALISM and Buddha nature.
In your unitarian universilsm there is still that flame. One still exists whereas in Buddha nature there is no trace of one also.
Its is very interesting to note that TAOISM and BUDDHISM were so close in understanding as TAO too means the same as buddha nature or NOTHINGNESS. This is the reason that these two religions merged and ZEN came out of it. The best or peak of human concuiousness.
Friend Lilithu, all this is possible only by meditation; there is no other way, known.
Love & rgds

If you're suggesting that no Buddhist should have any attachment at all, perhaps you ought to take some time to consider that your computer, and your membership on this forum is an attachment.

One that many would be happier if you'd let go of it.

Indeed. The ability to think, perceive and use language to communicate requires attachment, doesn't it?

HAHAHAHAHAHA,
Attachments are those which results in pain without them around.
Gautama would have been attached to his begging bowl and orchre robe?
