I am agnostic.

Buddhism falls prey to the same trap as every other religion in the end. Even if it began with a very true and concrete idea (like christianity), the message was distorted by people with low epistemic standards into a thing of just "be nice and good thing happen". In most ways, it's a direct downgrade from the Hindu ascetic experiments with prana and yoga which produced real, undeniable results. Buddhism works like any other ideology where it only feels real because other people believe in it. Soon as a religion loses popularity, the whole thing starts to feel like B.S. which is why it's so hard to be christian now. I don't blame you for wanting this stuff to be true but if you care about the truth, there's other avenues that may actually be fruitful beyond the hard sciences.

the essence of the self existent substance which is identical to being itself is to be a continuous medium joining the two poles of the initially indefinite dyad, this dyad is initially superessntial because it is the ultra general form of all poles - the perceptible universe exists to facilitate the experience of the infinite number of disjunctive pairs arising out of determinations of the primordial dyad, which all exist on a continuous gradation due to the logico-synechic implinec which implies that Being as the universal medium is absolutely continuous even relative to all other media. the human being is driven by a particular instantiation of the primordial dyad analysed by the terms "good" and "evil" - which are said to be opposites only because they exist in a medium, as oppositeness is a quality abstracted from spatial relations, space itself being a medium nested in the universal medium of being - Proklos Diadokhos analyzed this pair of utmost importance in terms of unification and multiplicity. His propositions were what were originally adjusted to arrive at the conception of morphics - the most general possible logic that explains how reality arranges itself in a continuous gradation of indecomposable qualities which are themselves nevertheless causologically reducible, as is seen in the updated non-platonic version of the system of Proklos Diadokhos invented to explain this ultimate fact of novelty without recourse to a pre-existent plenum of eternal objects, thereby eliminating the "one-way" property of neoplatonic systematization, and establishing the two poles of the indefinite dyad (manifesting most primordially in man as good and evil, which is shown through further analysis to be nothing more than unity and multiplicity) as mutual existents, neither prior to the other or independent of the other, but simultaneous - inducing an extreme form of amor fati where the purpose of the universe is to experience, not merely evil as the negation of good, but both absolute good and absolute evil. yet good and evil are even further analysed to be generalizations of many other dyads present in the human, especially the dyad of power and weakness. the dual of necessity and arbitrariness is offered most readily to divine meditation by the contradictory fact that the human incontrovertibly pursues the good despite the purpose of the universe being to experience evil as well - for everything in Being possible to be experienced must be experienced, even the desire of exclusion of experience. my progressive unification is precisely this sublime paradox, that not only do I go contrary to the purpose of the entire universe, but I also exist as an organism seeking unity and even achieving degrees of it, yet not through unity, but through the multiplicity of the brain, and I do it all over an entropic background, all while loving the evil that I seek to destroy as a divine pole of the universe.

Upon the moment wherein the sun rises from the horizon marking a new day on this glories Earth, I begin by reading the faint scratchings on the walls from those of yonder years.
After that I read through the Epic of Gilgamesh and then dabble in the comedies of Aristophanes.
From there onwards I read the words of Marcus Tullius Cicero, that man was ahead of his time.
I continue on in this predictable pattern making my way through the great works of Vasari and Voltaire all the way up to the present day where I read your pathetic post and perhaps even the thoughts inside your head as they are written so clearly upon your brow.
And after an insightful day, as I watch the sun once again creep away below those distant hills, I will have read all known works of mankind. From there, I rest, but tomorrow, I shall begin again

you awake through manifestation. the "self" is a natural formation. creating the immortal vessel is to be able to retain conciousness without the body.

I have a few hundred books
I bought the handmaids tale solely because that is on the blurb
It is the *only* book I can think of written by a woman that I own
I haven't read it
I probably never will

Only faggots thinks pursing pleasure is the meaning of life. You are not different from an animal, you lack of self-control and you pursue mundane needs. Pleasure is temporary, glory is eternal. Why you want to waste your life in mundane things like pleasure when you can achieve transcendental purposes like pursuing higher aesthetics, pursuing knowledge and leaving a legacy for posterity. Tesla and Newton were celibate and yet they changed the world for ever.
