"You will rue the day you questioned the intelligence of all Australia."
When? Where?
I fear you have already lost it.
A Zen master should easily remember

The mind is a battlefield. The pursuit of excellence is accomplished through the mastery of thought.
That's just an example of my own randomness.

Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh tells us, “Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves - slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future.”

It's interesting that verse 29 of Matthew 11 is the only place in the synoptic gospels where Jesus makes a personal autobiographical description of Himself.
Matthew 11:28-30
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Italics mine.

Matthew wrote it years after.
You are deceived if you believe otherwise.

Jesus said it.
Matthew wrote it years after.

What irony? Please inform the forum of the irony you are reffering to.

We know full well about L Ron. My point was his so-called religion is 100% man made. You fully acknowledge these man made religions and would conclude religions like Rasta are fully man made also.
My point is you cannot believe EVER that Christianity is exactly the same no matter how many other religions you or I know are man made.
There is no light at the end of the tunnel.
There indeed IS light at the end of the tunnel precisely BECAUSE they are not the same. It's really not that hard to figure out, man.

The universe is logical . It's suchness is hidden beneath surface.
We are eternal and we are prompted by angels to remember who we really are.
