To all or none,
I am presently reading a book on being Spiritual Warriors.

Nowadays,an act of bravery,is not made by attacking an enemy,
one against ten,but by facing our fears,alone against them .
The enemy is not outside but inside of us.Heroism is not conquering new lands,but leaving a job ,that in which we are not happy anymore stopping us from gaining a new heaven,the one who
carries our dreams.
This text is translated from French.

Sobriety ,Is not living as ascetic anymore.
It is closing the light that we do not need,not waste water,eat frugally and live simply,so as for others to simply live.

Each warrior advances at his/her own rhythm.Each path is personal and contributes to making of a vast theater piece in which we become the principal actor,THE HERO.
What is your theme ?

Our world is energy,whether under solid,liquid,gasous,emotional or
Psychic form.The warriors quest is THIS ENERGY.

Text by TB.

The secret of happiness,if we are looking for one,cannot be more explained,but by the tree phrases of the poet Tagore:

I dreamt that life was Joy;
I woke up and saw that life was to serve;I served and I saw that serving was the Joy.

For the Warrior,to liberate oneself from the world of men and serve with Joy,on a greater plane then our personnal life is not the end.
It is the beginning of the exploration of a Universe,with hundreds
Of Realms...invisible to the eyes of man/woman

Globally, the vision of the warrior is to change from daily ordinary perceptions, to the extraordinary world of Life in the every day.

The text that follows is a citation by Malcolm Forbes.

When I speak ,think of the past ,I regret more the things I did not do ,than those,I should not have done.

Loong's comment:I believe ,that nothing should be subject to regret
because ,first they cannot be changed,second ,they are but mere illusions.

To all or none,

Many of you do not know of my yin side.I had to learn to tame it.
Rarely do I write like this,but in a prior life ,I must have been some kind of Warrior,Pure,honest.
Up to now ,I have met death 3times .So Death and I are very old friends.Buddhism also helped me very much with my friendship with Death.Reading the Tibetan Book of Living and Dying,partly the
Tibetan Book of Death,helped me understand ,Death Samsara,Re-Birth.

This text ,I am about to write ,needed the above text.

The third Great Quality of the Warrior,is his Passion.He lives intensively,without reserve,with all his heart,as if he could die at any moment.When he awakens each morning,he thanks the Universe,
Telling himself ,what a beautiful day to die.
Children live with passion.The Warrior has been able to keep this
passion and to put it at the service of his vision.And he LAUGHS.
He laughs often ,because he loves laughing,however,Everything
He said Is SERIOUS.

I understand that some of you might wonder what this thread is doing in Buddhism.in Buddhism Death is a often spoken subject,
and to me this is my Home,Bella on line is my second home.

Knowing that when walking the path,he must,at every instant
annihilate his "I".He acquires a new consciousness, authentic,of his own death.This consciousness, must be accompanied by detachment.The thought of Death,instead of turning to an obsession
Becomes:Indifference.

The idea of Death ,is very important in Life.Without a clear vision on Death,there is no order,no balance,no Beauty.Warriors grind to acquire this perspective, so as to fully be conscious in the deepest part of their Mind,that nothing but nothing guaranties them ,that their lives will go on passed this NOW.
This consciousness, gives them the courage to be patient,but to act.Their consenting Courage,keeps them from being stupid in their actions

One must convince himself,that the only thing irrevocable,is Death.
We are creatures that will die,but yet we do not believe it.
Too bad ,because can you image what
can be done by someone that knows he is going to die and is fully consciencious about it.It is this idea that gives courage to the warrior.The courage of being cunning,without being proud,and
The courage to be invincible without being full of himself.

Man must understand that his evolution interests only himself.
No one else is interested.He must not expect help from nobody else.
You see, no one has to help him ,and no one wants to.

"Au contraire",the forces who opposes to the evolution of men,
Also oppose to his.It is to each person to counteract their acts.

A Warrior,loves uncoditionnally and in some way,he consecrates only on himself.Another oxymoron.Everything starts with him and ends with him.He follows his Path,and the contact with the Universe
forces him to annihilate ,his own importance,so the "I"becomes useless.

Today ,I have an old Zen story that I learned or heard of in quite a while.

The mother of the Sensei of the biggest zen temple,visited him.
After looking the place over she says :You have made quite well my son!
The next day the Zenmaster left the temple ,to find the poorest and smallest one!!!!!!

That is a good story.

The warrior's main goal in life ,is to show the best of himself
Discipline helps him attain this goal.Real discipline has nothing
to do with the notion of obligation or authority.Discipline becomes a form of freedom.It comes from the capacity of living intensely
Giving him a knowledge and a wisdom to a better understanding
Of things.The warrior is not paralyzed anymore,when he thinks of what he has to do.He just does it.This requires vigilance,
determination,and a great desire.

Discipline is a powerful and obligatory,allie to help us through our path.

Again this is translated from French.

Union with what we love is suffering,separation from what we love is suffering,not getting what we crave is suffering.

In the craving and desire,life can only be suffering.

This is a translation from French.

What characterizes normal people is the fact that they possess
A metaphoric knife,hence the preoccupations of the auto contemplation.We wound ourselves with it,and we bleed;and the function of our chains of auto contemplation is that it gives us the feeling that we are bleeding together,and that we share a marvelous thing.our humanity.But if we would study individually
this phenomenum ,we would discover that WE BLEED ALONE.that we share nothing,that we play with our surreal image,we made,totally fabricated.

Positive attitude towards life

The third element of personal power,requires the mental strength

To be positive,to recognize and give value to what works.

Critism is for the feeble.The warrior upholds everything that is

Positive around him.He does not give energy to whatever looks nega

Tive but often it is not as it looks.
.Our perception is always

Limited by our own consciousness and store consciousness.

The lot of being human is to learn.We go to knowledge like we go to war.With fear,respect,fully lucid that we risk our lives.

Only a Warrior can survive the Path of Knowledge,with a serenity and a self confidence that is absolute.Because the Art of Warrioship consists in balancing the terror of being human with the marvel of
being human.

Today the text is mine not from the book.

Living the Dharma is quite something.Every thought,thought must be pure,so with the actions and the words.Luckily I am a very disciplined person,that is why ,I tend more towards Thera lineage.
without however being of the lineage.Not liking the way woman are treated in thera.When people ask me what I do ,for a living ,I answer I live my Dharma.I sometimes mix with people of mansland
however not too often.

To me discipline,purety of all senses are a sign of good warriorship

the post that is written is from my own words.

A Dhamma Warrior ,if he has to go into battle ,must use weapons that are pure.Loving kindness,Compassion ,a desire to make peace instead of battle.The weapons used by the third party may not be as pure as those of the Dhamma Warrior.
Power,envy ,lies,those are the weapons of a suffering warrior.

In a book by a master ,the founder of ai-kido ,The art of peace ,he says and i quote"a good warrior must use only pure weapons.Also the best Warrior ,is one that had never had to fight.

One must make a bubble of protection around himself and bring his weapons in his bubble.
If the other warrior wants to attack him ,he must enter the Dhamma's
Warrior bubble and leave his weapons outside.If he wants to fight he must use the same pure weapons as the Dhamma Warrior,hence no fighting but peace found through truthful exchanges."

My Words* If a warrior is pure and is attacked ,he must do everything in his power for peace to grow like a Lotus.

"Le guerrier solitaire" de Thierry Pasquier,as he states:"The only reason we need a Master resides in the necessity to be rightracked without pity.Because we as warriors have a natural reaction to stop and congratulate ourselves for having made so much progress.!!

Just watched a chinese movie.7 brothers ,go to save their father .This is a true story in chinese history.Around maybe 15 -
16 th century.
None feared death,all had honor,persistance,loyalty to their Father and Mother.It was on Netflix.
Gave it a 5 star rating,for the true values that a good Dhamma Warrior must have.

Today ,I fell on a writing by GOETHE,I am sure he will not mind my using his beautiful words.So here goesAgain I will be translating from french.

"Until the moment we decide to dedicate ourselves completely,
there remains hesitation,chances of backing off,and always
inefficacity.

Concerning all acts of initiative and of creativity,there is an elementary truth ,and the ignorance of this truth,destroys an unbeleivable amount of ideas and the most splendid plans.

It is at the moment that we dedicate ourselves completly ,that the UNIVERSE also steps up.

All types of events happen that we feel supported,these that would not have happened before.A current of events coming from that moment of decision ,starts working in our favor.All types of happenings ,happen,we meet people,our financial situation changes.
Things that we would not have beleived possible HAPPEN.

Everything you can do or dream you can do ,start them!

Boldness ,has genius,power,and MAGIC in ourselves.

I had to pop in here. Though I do not know what a Dhamma Warrior is, your words...I had to quote them, as well as "Goethe."

We must have been on the same wave-length, though not as poetic, I've written something quite similar and you're quite accurate!!!

When we ARE bold enough to be what we're meant to, the Universe DOES in fact step in and things begin happening.

People are drawn via that energy with opportunities, finances, "chance-meetings" Synchronicity to be precise, begins working quite in the favor of those whom walk the footsteps meant to fit their very-Being smile

P.S. ( a rather long one) An example:

Once I replaced everyone else's garbage that had taken over my writing room and put it frankly where it belongs, with them, et.

The place they'd put my things, things I didn't even know I had or had thought lost for good...well there was a photo that meant soOooo much to me, just a feeling led me to.

I Didn't know where I was going (the house is quite large) but there it was cob-webs and all!! Walt Whitman (a black and white framed photo of the American poet). Now that IS the Universe at work. Once you make up your mind that is smile

To Elleise.

What I call a Dhamma Warrior,is this part in all of us the desire to survive,every moment we are alive.The Dhamma Warrior is not afraid of death,we die a bit more every NOW and get reborn.
When Death will come ,and it will come .Have an open Mind of it's "job".

Translated from french."Le guerrier interieur"by Thierry Pasquier.

"Integrity is a fantastic quality and so difficult to attain.
Being monolithic and at the same time to be flexible enough supplenessto face whatever comes our way;without integrity ,a path cannot have heart.

It is now time to lunge in the middle of the fight that the Warrior
is fighting against his false ptride and his alineating needs.

"We must look at all the paths.The paths lead nowhere They all culminate in our Death.But the one that is courageous all the way ,
will make the warrior discover marvels.The other will make him upset.The first shall make him strong,the second will make him weak.

Book translated from french ."le Guerrier Interieur" by T.Pasquier.

Each human smile,destroys war projects;Each negative emotion opens the door to destruction.
Each constructive thought diminishes the impact of the destructive forces,each peace desire diminishes the fire of battles.

To love is not that the other person ls well superficially.
Love is the wisdom of the warrior to help his/her lover
discover and enrich her path.

From the book by T.Pasquier";le guerrier interieur,translated from french by yours truly,
"A Dhamma Warrior will weight each of his actions.Since he has a very intimite conscience of his death,he acts in a judicious way .
as if each battle ,was his last one,that he fights with respect by giving the best of himself.It is for him a grand pleasure that makes his fear bearable.

Oh,

One more please?

Dhamma Warrior - I don't or didn't know what one was and it kinda sounds like me, and I have that thing like, "pick your battles...would you willingly lay down your life to uplift the Truth behind that of the illusion.

Is Dhamma Warrior a negative, positive, neither, both, Karmic and I had another question?

What is "A Sister of the Universe?"

My belief, my Spirituality, religion (if you will) is, we are all one. However, the backlash of being that of the one can feel like that of a cancerous cell...no matter how delicate and/or positively, good natured, simply recognizing the observable...it's like:

You're not supposed to confused

Just be positive and happy and go with whatever happens to be as everything is as it should be.

It may be a tad off topic, but my husband...I don't know why but I asked what Asperger's syndrome (I think it is) is? He said, A made up disease...

He played a "South-park" episode where, "Stan" (recognizing the sorrows of the world) not being able to dismiss them with idiocies, going along w/the crowd, etc. was deemed, A "Debbie-Downer," and then diagnosed w/Asperger's when deep inside he wanted, in some ways for things to go back to what he was used to. His parents had divorced, but as well, he recognized, society as a whole, could to do so much more, sO much better.

Never expected introspection from a cartoon, but it came at a time for a reason.

What are your thoughts?

Dear Elleise,

First ,on your question regarding Sister of the Universe,

As you mentionned ,we are all but one.The good ,the bad the Ugly, is still part of the Universe,he is my brother,as much as the person ,like you that is nice.Everything,Everyone is intertwined,inter-are.All ,or everything is to be loved ,to be helped to be accompanied through rough time.

The cloud contains the water that will fall on the ground,enter the ground grow a tree then a leaf.So in the leaf the cloud is in it ,is part of it.So you are my sister in this realm of beauty and goodness ,if it is the way you want to see the world.

My last post for the Dhamma Warrior ,you will find within an hour in Mindfulness training.
A poem Written by THICH NHAT HANH during the vietnam war.He wrote to the vietnamese monks who were being ostricised,maimed killed.

to my sister of the Oneness of the Universe
