This is a response to a Vedanta anti-vaxer who doesn’t doesn’t seem to know who he is, what Vedanta is and who he is writing.to. He wants me to know the virus/vaccine is a scam. His email, which is nothing new, follows my reply, should you care to read it.
Hi X,
OK. It’s a scam. So what? It’s not real. I’d be scammed if I thought it was. And I’d be doubly scammed if I accepted future proof of the virus as evidence, since future proof is not real either in so far as it doesn’t stand alone and it depends on the equally unreal concepts of past and present, which is to say time., which is purely subjective. A belief or an opinion is not proof of anything except itself. In fact the virus and the scam only seem to be real and have no effect on you, unborn eternal existence shining as ever-present blissful consciousness, so what’s the fuss? I would be triply scammed if I thought that the you that is telling me I’m a fool is real either. I don’t believe in the scam or the virus. I don’t disbelieve in them either. They both exist, however, as thoughts in the mind and in so far as they do, they are not real.
However, since there is going to be an unreal social event at Trout Lake discussing the nature of reality…Isvara willing…,the apparent me that is sponsoring the apparent event for apparent people, is required by the apparent dharma to offer guidelines respecting the rights of both apparent media-duped vaxers and non-evidence based anti-vaxers, which it seems the unreal you that is presenting this unreal opinion as if it were real, will, I assume, not be attending.
Speaking as the Self, which is what I am, I would like to offer the following uneal information that will confirm my absolute foolishness. To whit: three days ago I marched my apparent body to Wallgreens and blissfully enjoyed an apparent booster shot. And, you will be happy to know that since it is all a scam, I won’t be scammed into revising my unreal opinion should said body contact the virus and die a miserable death, as so many loud-mouthed anti-vaxers do once Isvara treats them to an unreal case of apparent death or an equally unreal case of long Covid.
Although you probably aren’t soliciting my opinion, in so far as it seems to me you have gone to a lot of trouble to convince me that you’re no fool, which sounds suspiciously like virtue signaling, which also might reasonably be assumed to belie a lack of confidence, I humbly offer the following opinion. Perhaps you need to bone up on your Vedanta, Brian.
Furthermore, I respectfully suggest that you peek your apparently pointed little head out of your rabbit hole and take a gander at the light of truth. The Kool-aid you drank isn’t real either. If, however, you are completely convinced that the whole thing is a scam, I suggest that you demonstrate your truth for all to see. Hang out maskless in an overcrowded Covid ward for a few days along with the compassionate, vaccinated, masked fools caring for the poor people who are suffering and dying from the putative virus and see how much of a scam it is. Talk’s cheap.
In any case you are welcome to attend to seminar. You can sit in the back with the anti-vaxers who actually appreciate the value of apparent Vedanta and respect the apparent teaching and the apparent teacher enough to act appropriately. You might learn something.
Much love,
James
Hey James,
I mean this in the most respectful way, brother, but I find it very confusing when someone whose whole life is focused on “truth” can be so oblivious to the falsehoods and ulterior motives of those who’ve created this fake pandemic – and that’s exactly what it is, a fake pandemic.
I’m not trying to take any “higher ground,” I’m only asking a very basic question: how can one be so diligent in digging as deep as you can into the ultimate truth, and then turn around and completely believe whatever you’re told at the relative level – without questioning the truth or veracity of what you’re being told. The question is global, not personal.
This doesn’t make sense from any level – absolute or relative, because as you and I know, its all One.
The whole pandemic is a scam being run by extremely nefarious people for profit, control, and domination over the global population. Even a cursory but genuine research into this subject while prove what I’m saying to be correct.
This will all come out on a global scale in the very near future.
I won’t try to convince you, though, because unfortunately, like so many others you seem to have simply, unquestioningly trusted our less-than-honest politicians, profit motivated Big Pharma, Big Mainstream Media (supporting the big lie), and the so-called medical profession that Big Pharma totally owns and controls.
There is a big awakening happening all over the world. Detractors say that this is a relative level awakening – and that may be so – but it is already, and will soon be even more so, bringing about a spiritual great awakening on a global scale. All the ancient prophets of all major spiritual traditions speak of this. And the proof is all around us for those with eyes to see.
From my perspective, it behooves us to awaken at both “levels” – relative and absolute; after all, they are not – in essence – two; there is only Oneness.
Anyway, I wish you well, brother. I hope you don’t suffer the ill effects of the experimental jabs (being falsely presented as a vaccine – again proven with only the most cursory investigation), and that you can indeed do ten more Trout Lake retreats.
Love you,
x….
