I have heard you talk "about" various esoteric Buddhist topics, but honestly from my perspective you seem to miss the points much of the time--and I know lamas have told you this as well. Interesting concepts if that's what your into (and I certainly respect your right to do that if you wish), but it's really about experience and life. How well can you integrate it into your life? How well can I integrate it into my life?
 
---Have you? Which lamas?


But to be clear, I have a very clear idea of what my intent is and what's behind it. I do not typically fly off the handle, half-cocked.
 
 
----Mixed metaphor.
 
 
 
It's just part of the way I was trained but more importantly because it is something I find useful and practical.
 
 
----What is?  I don't get what youre refering to.
 
 
Therefore when someone else tries to tell 'what I think" or "what I mean" and it's off base, I can recognize that.
 
----Like when you saw that I said you were evil or bad? As you had said above?
 
So if you have a specific beef, quote me.
 
 
----I could easily. Already you maligned me saying you have heard me say Buddhist things against some lama's wishes.  That's pure bull. 
 
Otherwise I just sense reaction outside what I am saying. Sure I could say where I feel that's coming from, but these are really personal issues for the individual to work out.
 
 
---Well come on man, tell me why Ii should be angry at you.  You doo admit that there's some reason then aye?  That's interesting. I hadn't really considered that.
 
It's particularly interesting to me when we can simply state things 'as they are'--as what other people *assume* you mean tells you more about them and their underlying motivations/attachments.
 
 
---Ditto.


Moreover you're constantly putting on more makeup.

Constantly? How would you know? Could you quote me?
 
---Sure like when you assumed that I assumed you were evil or bad in the above comment.  When I never assumed or stated anything of the sort. That was applying a layer of makeup to what should have been merely face.
