There is no suffering to be severed. Ignorance and klesas are indivisible from bodhi. There is no cause of suffering to be abandoned. Since extremes and the false are the Middle and genuine, there is no path to be practiced. Samsara is nirvana. No severance achieved. No suffering nor its cause. No path, no end. There is no transcendent realm; there is only the one true aspect. There is nothing separate from the true aspect.

Welcome Jake.

Mod team changes. Please welcome Anders and narhwal90 to the moderating team.
I'd like to offer a very big thank you to Queequeg, who has stepped down after being a moderator since April 2016.
(QQ, It'll take a while to get used to your user name not being green! )

Re: Mod Team - Coming and Going
Just a small update. Me and dear Hazel have taken up the duty of modding this wonderful place. Please be nice (to us and each other) and pray that the awesome power won't get into our heads.

goodness is what comes to pass.
For those who do non-virtuous actions,
that becomes suffering indeed.
