What we really have is just the ability to choose which specific impulses to act on.
That's the long and short of it.
jadewalker51 said:Stop rambling. If you and people like you didn't believe that *you* were the sole authority on this, wouldn't you just head over to a local bookstore or a library and find—get this—a direct translation from Sanskrit into English, complete with an extensive study? A book like that came out a few years ago and is incredibly easy to find.
It would be quite improper, even unnecessary, for me to boast about how many translations and commentaries of the Gita I have read or which languages I've used.
After all, isn't there that old saying about casting pearls before swine?
Gregory Jackson said:Look, I get it, really, but maybe you shouldn't have jumped in like that. Now you've basically just handed everything to him on a silver platter.
Gregory Jackson said:Wait, so are you actually Immortal or what?
Gregory Jackson said:So, I guess I’ll just throw out a little something trivial here too, just to see what everyone thinks, you know? Like, maybe...
So, I guess you're wondering what kind of monitor I'm currently staring at all day? Honestly, I haven't really thought about it much lately, but if I remember correctly, it’s a Dell—just one of those reliable ones you can always count on when you're deep in a rabbit hole, I suppose.
So, I was just sitting here thinking about that question—you know, wondering which countries actually hold the keys to the kingdom when it comes to the company I work for? It’s kind of a trip when you really stop to mull it over, I guess. Like, you go into your shift, grab your coffee, and just assume everything is local, but then you realize the whole ownership structure is this massive, complicated web stretching across the map. I mean, maybe it's just one big American conglomerate, or maybe there are pieces of it owned by folks halfway across the world, but honestly, it's hard to say for sure without digging through all those boring corporate filings, right? It makes you feel sort of small, thinking about how much global influence is tucked away behind a simple office door, but hey, that's just how the world works these days, I suppose!
So, I was just sitting here thinking about all this cosmic stuff, and I started wondering, like, what am I actually according to my horoscope? I guess I should probably check my birth chart or something to see which sign I fall under, you know? It’s kind of funny how much people obsess over those zodiac signs and whether they’re a Leo or a Scorpio or whatever, but maybe there's some truth to it buried in there somewhere, who knows? I'm honestly just curious to see if my personality actually lines up with what the stars say about me!
I mean, if you ask me, for someone like him, this probably shouldn't even be a struggle, I guess.
John Jones3 said:Then how do you distinguish between what happens in a week versus two weeks, or today versus tomorrow? If everything is just "now," pinning down a specific future event seems impossible.🤷
John Jones3 said:That joke about the porn was just that—a joke. Not sure where your sense of humor went. Anyway, thanks fadedskipper52 for the critique and the concern; everything you said is spot on, and I’m well aware of it—working on it. 😉
Now you're claiming some big change is coming my way soon—don't tell me you've decided to start using your "supernatural powers" on this forum too? That would be a real step down to the exact level you claim to despise in me.
John Jones3 said:Just wire me a hundred bucks and I'll grant you enlightenment—honestly, I don't even need the money. 🤣
John Jones3 said:Right back at ya.👍
John Jones3 said:Hey! Now I’ll be watching your every move whenever you pop up on YouTube or RedTube—so watch yourself, don't go pulling any stunts. 😂
First you ask the question, then act all shocked when you actually get an answer. You still have a lot to learn from the pros—you're just a little wannabe light show enthusiast
Gregory Jackson said:Oh, come on, I'm sure the Immortal will let you through. Honestly, though, am I really going to be the only unilluminated person left on this whole forum!?
