To study the Buddha is to study oneself. To study oneself is to forget oneself. To forget oneself is to be enlightened by the myriad dharmas. To be enlightened by the myriad dharmas is to bring about the dropping away of body and mind of both oneself and others. The traces of enlightenment come to an end, and this traceless enlightenment is continued endlessly.
~ Dôgen
I prefer the way of the Dao.
Buddism is based on self study to achieve personal enlightenment and elevation to the higher planes. This is done through a cycle of suffering and rebirth.
Daoism is the aligning of oneself with the universe to free the self from society and align it with nature.
Both are very close in ideology and practice but Daoism doesn't require the suffering and rebirth bits necessary in Buddism. Even so both are slowly being merged, along with Taoism, into a religious pantheon which uses the best parts of both.
This works for me because Mr. MorningStar is all about being a force of Nature. My only suggestion is that you take extreme care to not end up sitting next to the volcano.

Neither work out as well in the present as much as: You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.I’ve never worked very hard to draw distinctions between the two. I, too, am inclined to agree that picking the best parts from all tends to simplify things. Along in the short seems to be the cultivation of humility, such that we don’t take ourselves too damn seriously or get consumed with thinking that we are all that in a sack of chips. One can learn that if one is observant by watching libturds rattle on about how important what they’re rattling on about is, and the truth is, at the end of the day, no one could care less, as it simply is not possible. We have many notable examples.
I also think it’s nice to get out there and help somebody as a regular way of doing business. The thing I like to do most of all is to do something for someone else and make it a point not to tell anyone about it. That way, my “good deed “is between me, the recipient, and the universe. Among. The deed is among us.

I would add that includes disparaging remarks made against others in this forum.
Pretty much sums up how the universe and its vassals should work in harmony with one another.
But, then we have you two musing about being nice to others. That's a start.
Pay it forward...
Piffle. Why don’t you go read the shit we get barraged with and know that we have a zero tolerance policy, he and I. Take your judgementalism and stuff it up your ass.
I say that with love in my heart.
Harpy, I wouldn't lie to you. There is nothing to gain by it. Pointing out fallacies and flaws in your commentaries are not lies.This would be great if only you'd stop lying to everyone. Yourself included.
I gave up lying in 1971.
How so? I stated it. How would you go about disproving it? I'll wait. This should be interesting logic behind this.A provable lie.

This is an avoidance. The burden is upon you to disprove my statement, not the other way around.
Why? Because it's well known that humans constantly and consistently tell little white lies every day.
Me? I think it's obvious that I'm not Mr. MorningStar's head flunky. There's no possible way I can be, mostly because the damn blood donor chicken ratted me out.
So yes, I lie. For humorous reasons.
Now it's your turn. Remember, an admission of guilt proves my statement.
Sucking trumps cock won't get you on a watchlist, tranny boi.
You still have orange lips, lil girl.Pussies gonna puss.
Owned pussies puss with more tears in the pussing . . . .
Good thing I recall a bit from an old university logic course. It's useful here.This is an avoidance. The burden is upon you to disprove my statement, not the other way around.
