“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
―Philip Freneau

And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again?

Google AI: Found in Matthew 25:14-30, this famous parable (often called the Parable of the Talents) is a story told by Jesus about a wealthy master who leaves for a long journey. Before departing, he entrusts his money to three servants, giving different amounts to each according to their abilities:
Servant 1: Given 5 talents (worth several million dollars in today's currency). He invests it and doubles the amount to 10.
Servant 2: Given 2 talents. He invests it and doubles the amount to 4.
Servant 3: Given 1 talent. Driven by fear of the master, he hides it in the ground and returns only the original amount upon the master's return.
Upon his return, the master assesses their work. Both the 5-talent and 2-talent servants are praised as "good and faithful" and given greater responsibilities. However, the master is furious with the third servant for his laziness, takes his money away, and punishes him.
Key Takeaways
God’s Trust: The "talents" in the story represent the varied resources, time, and abilities God has entrusted to you.
Faith over Fear: The first two servants were willing to take risks out of faith in their master's goodness. The third servant was paralyzed by fear and a distorted view of the master's character.
Accountability: The story highlights that everyone will be held accountable for how they use what they are given.
Civil Servants are mostly like the 3rd. They avoid risk, making them poor stewards of the commonwealth. Others, like Fauci, abuse the commonwealth for personal gain (personal gain of function research kickbacks)
Plus the highest salary of any US public civil servant. I think Fauci understood the value of "intangible assets" such as that which a successful mRNA vaccine development system would produce and the post-retirement profits he could generate based upon his reputation and contacts alone.
Can Son of Gawd, one born with all heavenly wisdom, one knowing his ancestry and able to perform miracles at will... even just have concept ofthat UNEASY FEELING OF UNCERTAINITY... one we call fear of death?
Naaah. That was temptation in sin of pride -- see how you Father-Gawd was treating (never as peers) mortals, why would you not do the same? They'll be happy either way.
But even that is, just another layer of missconception. As there is no Satan, only sAAtan -- loyal servant of gawd.
That came as psychological chancelor, when Jesus properly asked for guidence. Yawn.
That HouLLy Bible,.. was authored by Satan???))) Even if partially, but in most crucial part. Showing that Gawd and Satn -- are PEERS in their games with human hearts???))))
It's a parable, not a statement of faith. Even a bad scifi story has some underlying truth in it. What does a god in heaven know of a man's hunger or thirst? So why not a "base" human temptation? Perhaps is "knowledge" is why he didn't succumb to it?
Who was Lucifer. A fallen "light-bearing" angel. Maybe the light he bore was the bible? The 'Good' book. As in fruit from the tree of knowledge of good & evil. That snakey devil...
And whom do you make it worse? To one you calling names. Or to yourself, tainting your(superficial anyway, yawn) buddhism, with inability to percieve own wrongs…

You're not familiar with this? Jesus had the 'J' (Jouissance). G_d (not human form) did not. You need a body to "feel" jouissance. It's the human feeling that "confirms" knowledge.
Ignorance is a tough nut to crack. Having experienced it for many years when the practice finally causes a crack the liberation from the bondage of belief in a reified capitalist belief system and its illusions and delusions allows for great freedom.
The Dalai Lama has consistently maintained that "war is outdated and non-violence is the only way" to resolve the conflict in Ukraine. Since the invasion began, he has repeatedly called for an immediate end to the violence, advocating for a resolution rooted strictly in diplomacy, dialogue, and mutual respect.
His official stance and key messages highlight several core principles:
Core Messages on the Conflict
Outdated Nature of War: He emphasizes that the 20th century was an era of bloodshed, meaning the 21st century must pivot to become a "century of dialogue". He describes military establishments as monstrous organizations built solely to kill human beings.
The Vicious Cycle of Violence: He warns that violence only begets more violence and can never serve as a lasting foundation for peace.
Global Interconnectedness: He notes that modern nations are highly interdependent, meaning a localized war inevitably triggers a humanitarian and economic crisis that impacts the entire world.
Oneness of Humanity: He urges global leaders and citizens to view each other as brothers and sisters rather than adversaries, noting that genuine peace comes from respecting a neighbor's well-being
it's not about consistently maintaining a single identity. It's about having the agreed to shared multiplicity to segue in and out of. Compassion for "This" issue, but NOT THAT ONE!
I remember my week+ in the asylum becoming very aware of my roles, as with those of others all around me. It was perhaps the most overtly "performative" period of my life.

That's why you cannot say anything about it, as source of your wisdoms are so out there…)))))))
Yes, they abandoned the defense of their country and spent all their wealth on monasteries dedicated to navel gazing and spinning prayer wheels.
The first temptation of Christ. Avoid risk.

Smiling at your ignorance. :)
Those who know simply nod and leave the unknowing to their unknowing.
Ta all have an unknowing day now, ya hear?
You'll make a willing slave to AI and the machine. The roots are already starting to grow.
Get back into your meditation closet Les.
^^Willing slave to Buddhism^^
What a gross misconception. Yawn.
Do Son of Gawd even ABLE to die?
I'll rephrase.
Can Son of Gawd, one born with all heavenly wisdom, one knowing his ancestry and able to perform miracles at will... even just have concept ofthat UNEASY FEELING OF UNCERTAINITY... one we call fear of death?
Naaah. That was temptation in sin of pride -- see how you Father-Gawd was treating (never as peers) mortals, why would you not do the same? They'll be happy either way.

As there is no Satan, only sAAtan -- loyal servant of gawd.

Or... what we'd be forced to admit???

Naaaah. Satn even Greater.
As he can tempt gawd himself.
And gone unscatched, unpunished %^P
Just commented above.
Naaah. Just stooopid as stupidity is.
Yawn.

He doesn't have a prayer wheel handy to stuff a note into so he spits his chants out on the ineternets.

It's touchstone/ philosopher's stone... the "philo" in "sophistry".
Jesus was therefore capable of "experiencing" a contaminating confusion.
That's all???
Naaah.
He is just follower of Asura --buddhism version of satanism ;-p
I'm no theologist.
That explains the empty prayer wheel...

Willful Ignorance should never be accepted. Yet always forgiven because delusion affects the entire human race at one time or another.
The truly ignorant are simply unwilling to step outside their conditioning and relfied box.
...and into the reified box of Buddhism.
...or should I call it "meditation closet for reprocessing time".
Nothing like a bit of schizo-analyses to avoid returning home and up the oikophobia, eh Les?
...Rosebud!
I rest my case.
Ignorance is a tough nut to crack. Having experienced it for many years when the practice finally causes a crack the liberation from the bondage of belief in a reified capitalist belief system and its illusions and delusions allows for great freedom.
Yes, the freedom to spew UniParty kayfabe capitalism talking points. Go Ukraine! Kill me some Ruskies!

Naah. In his true religion(satanism)pretence and excusrs is everything
But one cannot excuse oneself indefinitely.
That's why the need to wear/change masks.
I'm christian
I'm democrat
I'm buddhist
I'm... whatever.
Yawn
Profilicity - Acting the role.
Only the Buddhist is compassionate. The other roles are required to avoid it.
So when it comes actually showing and acting compassionately, we can easily escape the requirement by shifting to another identified role.
Great observation.
"Identity" politics.
it's not about consistently maintaining a single identity. It's about having the agreed to shared multiplicity to segue in and out of. Compassion for "This" issue, but NOT THAT ONE!
Reward friends, Punish enemies.
Sincerity in the Buddhist role is expected in and reserved exclusively for Lamas, not lay Buddhists.
Authenticity flows from the consistent performance of roles in the agreed to and curated mix. Lesbian, aggrieved minority, or "ally". @@
'Sincerity' is so last millennium.
It's all "Genuine Pretending" now. Yes, you may applaud now. ;)
...as I will with certainty ALWAYS applaud myself.
I remember my week+ in the asylum becoming very aware of my roles, as with those of others all around me. It was perhaps the most overtly "performative" period of my life.
I was "on stage" 24/7/365...
