Meh. Maras are liars. Not digging your demonology.
Whatever Trump is, besides the POTUS, is something to consider.

There is no suffering to be severed. Ignorance and klesas are indivisible from bodhi. There is no cause of suffering to be abandoned. Since extremes and the false are the Middle and genuine, there is no path to be practiced. Samsara is nirvana. No severance achieved. No suffering nor its cause. No path, no end. There is no transcendent realm; there is only the one true aspect. There is nothing separate from the true aspect.

Lies aren't un-truths, they're variations on the truth. Trump is helping us ignorant earthlings understand that we create our own truths/facts. Don't like the show, change the channel!

Re: The Worship of Donald Trump
They can be. My contention is whether demons work that way. Like I said, Maras are liars, better dismissed or vanquished through exposure. I don't think Trump is any species of demon. I could believe that he's a mean old man, however.Rick wrote: ↑Fri Aug 24, 2018 7:58 pmLies aren't un-truths, they're variations on the truth.

Now, in all fairness, I don't know much about Hinduism but it occurred to me that whenever they worship mahatmas or mahavatars, the guys in question are usually dead. Does RT knows something that we don't?

My Nyingma teacher speaks highly of demons and of their ability to burn away (behead, skewer) delusion.
And then there's this lovely book, which I got after someone recommended it on this forum (I think): Feeding Your Demons.

And I only have so much patience for "demons," or anything resembling one in the spirit of their words or actions, such as displaying intentional cruelty and/or persistently being harmfully deceptive. Some let demons attack them, some "behead" them, like Buddhist protectors do.Is Trump "demonic?" I don't know what to think. I know this term ends in 2020. If you think he's evil, it would be interesting if you got a mantra from your teacher for Queequeg's mandala and attended some Alt-Right rallies to purify yourself.
Tell us how it goes.

Many of us are horrified by the troll in Chief, but they just don't know history! There were Roman Emperors who were troll level 10000 compared to the Donald's amateur level attempts... I suppose that just tells us we have yet to reach the depths of depraved possibilities. We're such prudes!

My apologies to those who I offend. It's really just a joke at the gallows. If I can't laugh at this president, I'll cry.
