TOPIC: TWO KINDS OF PEOPLE |
|
|
 |
Posted on Dec.21.2007 @ 11:40PM EDT by chontri
In general speaking, there are two kinds of people.
The first one is those who can be called dependent people. This kind includes two types: -Those who do not realize their own capacity and always expect to get big results and try to do big things as many as they could, such as to be a teacher, a master, a guru, a leader, a ruler, a founder of something, for example, an "ism", a church, a party, etc...
-And those who do not realize their own capacity and just wants to be a student, a slave, a disciple, a follower, a member, etc...
Why are they called "dependent people"? Because, if one of these two types does not exist, the other will become crippled. It’s impossible for them to get any results from the other.
The second one is those who can be called the independent people. This includes those who realize their own capacity, do not expect to get any results from others, and rely on themselves in doing things. Their heads are up into sky and their feet walk freely on earth.

If this is so, and dependent-arising says 'independent' exists because of 'dependent', how can the Bodhisattvas vow ever be fulfilled? |

he he !!
Ben Frankfurter say: "Neither a leader nor a follower be."
Just be. Needing nothing. Wanting nothing. Being nothing.
And say only the things you want to hear from yourself, as if in a vacuum all by yourself, because maybe that's all there really is. |

The Bodhisattva vow has been fulfilled, will never be fulfilled; he has been waiting too long - becoming a Bodhisattva and waiting outside the gates of paradise for everyone else is not something one decides to be, or can decide to do, not something one can choose - it's a beautiful fictional story. And psychologists are either 'lumpers' or 'splitters' - meaningful only in terms of psychological theory and has nothing whatsoever to do with me. |

There are 6 billion plus kinds of people. None of them are truly dependent. None of them are truly independent. |

So, you truely know all and every of them (6 billion plus kinds of people) and none of them are neither truely dependent nor truely independent, right? If so, you are extremely good at knowing of people.
ChonTri is not as good as you are, he knows just a couple of kinds as he mentioned above.

In the vanguard of a hedgeclipper, I manually and not a little boyishly, swept a 100 yard lane with a 12 inch hard broom and a luminous awareness, yesterday. You should see it. People even stopped in their 4x4s commented out the window and said ,"Good fekka", [no sorry] "fella!" |

Which is a fiction:
Nothing left to attain, or compassion for others?
I find no poison on this board whatsoever. Just rearranged dead words, and shallow intellectualization posing as 'knowing'.
Here's some 'dead words' for you:
"If someone without kensho makes a constant effort to keep his thoughts free and unattached, not only is he a great fool, he also commits a great transgression against the Dharma. He winds up in the passive indifference of empty emptiness, no more capable of distinguishing good from bad than a drunken man." -Bodhidharma
I'm going to find a wall. I wish all of you the best on your journeys.

I worked for several years with profoundly/severely retarded clients in a residential facility.( I still work there, but now in the warehouse.) We tried to foster indepedence by having the clients perform whatever tasks they could for themselves. I had one client who used to get up early every morning, get dressed, and come to me to tie his shoes. One morning as I was tying his shoes, a first shift staff came in and asked me what I was doing. I told him I was tying the client's shoes(duh). He told me the client could tie his own shoes and then told the client to tie his shoes. Sure enough the client tied his shoes. All that time I thought the client was dependent on me for tying his shoes but all that time he was just playing me. |

I don't understand any of that. I don't see any of that. I thought at the time, I was quite clear about the beautiful fictional story - guess you have to be here. Where does the poison fit in? And rearranged dead words? You sound quite upset. Anyway, all the best but I think you already found a wall. |

Right. What you are telling in your story is different from what ChonTri meant in his original post.

Right. What you are telling in your story is different from what ChonTri meant in his original post. " ......... I'm just not comfortable with trying to fit people into categories, saying either you are this or you are that. Dependent or independent can be determined by circumstances. For example a person can be independent, not relying on others as you say, but if he becomes seriously ill he will have to go to a doctor if he wants to get well. He has to rely on that doctor's knowledge and skill and the training he has received that was passed down from generation to generation.( Dependence on ancestors.) I don't think anyone can ever be entirely independent. We are all a part of a greater whole, and we all depend on one another to some degree. So perhaps what I'm trying to say is that dependence/indepedence is a matter of degree. Some people are mostly dependent, some are mostly independent and many of us are somewhere in between. If I am still missing the point of your original post, I apologize for my ignorance. |

Did the original post say: A student is a student forever and he should be a dependent all the time in his lifetime? A teacher? A follower? A leader?....
A student and a teacher depend on each other while they are a student or a teacher of their own. If one of them is missing, the relationship student - teacher is no longer exist, then none of them is as a student or teacher as it were. And this is what the original post meant.
Putting people or things into some kinds of groups or categories (as you termed) is just a way of speaking, to make it a little easier to follow and understand at some degree. If you felt uncomfortable with it, then it would not be its problem. |

The only way to become truly independent is to eliminate all attachments so that one is not dominated by external circumstances. |

No he didn't - the ones who believed in him did that. Hitler was an idiot who projected his inner turmoil outward onto the world. His followers, his victims and his enemies make him what he is. |

No he didn't - the ones who believed in him did that. Hitler was an idiot who projected his inner turmoil outward onto the world. His followers, his victims and his enemies make him what he is. " ......... Hitler was anything but an idiot. I won't speculate on his inner turmoil; I'm sure he had his share." .........
All conflict begins with an individual's inner turmoil being projected ouward, even world wars. And Hitlers provide fictions for other idiots to believe in. There are no anything buts. |

Hitler was in some ways a very gifted man. Unfortunately, the manner he used his gifts led to great suffering in the world. One of the reasons he was so successful is that so many of his opponents persisted in underestimating him,i.e. thought him an idiot. Few of us are nearly as smart as we think we are nor as stupid as others think us. The second part of your post that,"His followers, his victims, and his enemies make him what he is." is both a more accurate and interesting observation. The inverse is also true, that Hitler makes us who we are. If he had never been, we would not be who we are. |

We're just on opposite ends of a computer connection. It is said in the practice that one must have great doubt, great faith, and great determination. You seem to be supplying the first, I'm working on the second. Great determination hmmm..... I think I'll let you take care of that. |

I got 13 hours of sleep last night and this morning. Now I've got to wake up. Then I've got to eat some cereal. Then I've got to get on the bike and go 12.3 miles. Then I've got to walk the dogs. But right now I have got to write my tea and stop drinking about it. |
