About Me

www.EROWID.comIn Buddhism, a buddha is any being who has become fully awakened (enlightened), has permanently overcome greed, hate, and ignorance, and has achieved complete liberation from suffering. Buddhists consider enlightenment, also called nirvana, the highest form of happiness. Siddhartha Gautama, the historical founder of Buddhism, is often referred to as "Buddha", or "the Buddha". The word buddha literally means "awakened" or "that which has become aware". It is the past participle of the Sanskrit root budh, meaning "to awaken", "to know", or "to become aware". Buddha as a title may be translated as "The Awakened One". The teachings of the Buddha are called the Dharma. The Dharma teaches that all suffering arises from attachment, particularly attachment to worldly desires. Nirvana is attained by learning to achieve peace of mind by overcoming the attachment one has to various material objects as well as emotional desires such as envy, greed, lust, and pride. A common misconception views Buddha as the Buddhist counterpart to “God”. Buddhism, however, is non-theistic. In general it does not teach the existence of a supreme creator god or depend on any supreme being for enlightenment. Buddha is a guide and teacher who points the way to nirvana. The commonly accepted definition of the term "God" describes a being that not only rules and judges, but actually created the universe. Such ideas and concepts are disputed by Buddha and Buddhists in many Buddhist discourses. In Buddhism, the supreme origin and creator of the universe is not a god, but Avidya (ignorance). Buddhists try to dispel this darkness through constant practice, compassion and wisdom.The Truth About 911 -----Go See What Really Happened. Help Spread The Truth!!!

GLOWSTICKS...You are glowsticks! What is more classic at a rave than glowsticks? You love the nightlife, optical illusions, and dancing. You should use your glowsticks liberally throughout a rave, espically if you're wearing white. Never forget to dance with about three feet all around you, though, so you can trance properly!RAVE ON!

Subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream and we're just the imagination of ourselves." ---- BILL HICKS ---- Another Dead Hero What Tool song are you?
You are Lateralus. You are unique, intelligent, and most importantly, an individual. You are probably a leader and you see and do things your own way, which is usually different from the norm. We expect big things to come from you.

Their vividness cannot be stressed enough. They are more real than real, and once you get that under your belt and let it rattle around in your mind, then the compass of your life begins to spin and you realize that you are not looking in on the Other; the Other is looking in on you." ----~~Terence McKenna~~ I embrace my desire to feel the rythm, to feel connected, enough to step aside and weep like a widow, to feel inspired, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, to swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human. Ride the Spiral to the end. You may just go where no one's been. Spiral out. Keep Going.
