      How to Kill Your Parents, God, and Teacher

      I want to be enlightened. How do I do these three things.

      Fuck extended discussion, I like senseless banter more so that's where this thread goes.

      Also I wouldn't mind a moderator moving this to R&S or Philosophy now that I'm sober.

      If you want to screw with God's mind, prove to him that he doesn't exist.
      How do you know you are not dreaming right now?

      Why kill them? Just let them get out of your life, if they don't leave you, you leave them. You don't need anyone of them to survive, only food, water and air.

      He means he wants no attachment.

      attachment should leave you when you study the heart sutra.

      In a sense, leaving people means you're leaving behind the attachment too.

      Because if you meet the Buddha on the road, you're supposed to kill him.

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

      Detach yourself from wanting to kill them, you wouldn't get enlightenment from longing for anything.

      That's the paradox of enlightenment. How does one desire to be desireless? It has been said both that in order to obtain enlightenment, you cannot want it, and also that you must need it like the lungs need oxygen. Quite a conundrum.

      Wouldn't it be enough to just beat the shit out of Buddha?

      I saw a Buddha statue while cutting through some apartments today. Think I should smash it?

      Or like hit my parents with it and knock the first two out right off the bat?

      That is guaranteed instant enlightenment. Do it! You will be the happiest death row inmate on Earth.

      It's about being at peace with the fact that you're the same decaying matter as everything else.
