[Quote] "I appreciate a piece Ken McLeod wrote about karma. His point was that Buddhist teachings were about training the mind. Karma is not very useful as a mechanism to explain how things happen, but it is useful as a teaching RE how actions sow seeds. 2/6
Fine. He told me in a non-lucid dream. Guess I'll have to get back to you after I summon him in a lucid dream and my subconscious has him tell me what I want to hear.

You know nobody told you shit. You're guessing. You haven't woken up. Do the work, fucking wake up, & then teach, you idiot.

Did Dudjom Lingpa disclose to you my level of progress on the path in that same lucid dream, or was it a different one? Did he tell you that I haven't woken up? Or is your assessment grounded in your desire to be right?

No, I'm just going by your sarcastic shit.

Hard to have an earnest discussion with someone who communicates with rage. The way I tend to respond to that is with sarcasm. Perhaps I need to work on that. Maybe you can work on your anger and unquestioning certitude of your suspicions about others' experience in the meantime.

I use strong language to provoke a response. When the response is weak sarcasm, that tells me something. (Tells me not to waste my time on you.)
-
Well then I genuinely apologize for the sarcasm. Reading over this whole thread again, while your responses still seem unnecessarily hostile, I realize that I could have responded more skillfully. Can I ask what kind of response you were attempting to provoke?
