Aspies For Freedom - If Jean d'Arc were alive today, where would we find her?

I hope she would use her power into a constructive prodject like fighting with words or the pen for the rights of discriminated people.

To a war somewhere...?

Why...dont you think violence adds more violent-carma?

[size=xx-small]I agree. One life on Earth doesn't seem like enough to prepare us for eternity in Heaven or Hell. Eternal life can be construed simply as the eternity of life. Christians ask, "Where am I going?" whereas Buddhists ask, "Where did I come from?"

I was baptised in the Catholic Church yet Buddha-Dharma has a lot of meaning for me. Before "I" was born in April 1979, "I" had made Buddhist as well as Christian karma. And Aspie karma, like everyone else here. I mean to suggest that the causes & conditions for my Aspie-ness were laid down by virtue of previous lives stretching back into beginngless time.

My cat Dixie and I must have had previous associations as different beings in order for this one to arise. Seeing as how they lack the means to get enlightened and wisdom as buddha, animals usually take rebirth in animal form.

Who here knows some Dharma?

You meen,Dharma and greg? Smile

Emmy you are correct in that "violent" karma can be reduced only with "nonviolent" karma. If hatred breeds violence and violence breeds hatred, the only way to break that cycle of samsara* would be to renounce, forget, and forgive. One may not escape the negative causes & conditions in a single lifetime, but the door to peace is definitely opened. The hatred of humankind for its enemies oozes right out of them like radiation, permeating everything. It is a PYSCHIC POISON.

*samsara: the cycle of birth and death in which all sentient beings are imprisoned.

I didnt understand the word pyschic and permeating,but otherwice I thing you were right in that post!
