And to the pure...all things are pure.
Which means that 'pure evil' is still pure.
Think on that a bit, scout1.
Please define "evil" as it has meaning to you, personally...so I know a little more about where you are coming from.
Since you are sending us to a site full of Buddhist philosophies, does that mean that is your own preferred outlook?
If so, then how is the idea of "demons" valid to you?
You said:
sorcery is a clear rebirth among demonsWhat about Mara?
What is "Mara" to you?
Is Mara literally a demon who exists as an autonomous entity?Or is Mara simply the demon that fulfills your cravings of the moment, thus helping you to remain in the mind-set of suffering?Or something else? If, so then please elaborate Also, if you apply the principles of Buddhism to your life in a literal fashion, have you experienced Satori yet?
If so, then what did you realize...especially in regard to ideas such as sorcerers being reincarnated demons?
Thanks in advance!
And nice to make your acquaintance, too, btw.
